Giants need a safety and another one just hit the market

Landon Collins is gone, but another safety option just became available to the Giants and the rest of the NFL.

In a bit of a surprise, the Ravens cut six-time Pro Bowler Eric Weddle on Tuesday night. The 34-year-old free safety, who went to the Pro Bowl during each of his three seasons in Baltimore, is not planning to retire and would bring strong leadership to any team he joins.

The 12-year veteran could be a help to a Giants defense that is lacking in talent and identity, now that their defensive captain isn’t coming back.
