The most reliable and consistent player the Giants had in 2015, in terms of succeeding at one specific job requirement, was Josh Brown. The veteran kicker connected on 30 of his 32 field-goal attempts as he compiled a career-high 134 points. The Giants made sure Brown stayed put, re-signing him Monday to a two-year contract worth $4 million.
That the Giants guaranteed $1 million on the deal means they fully expect him to be their kicker again in 2016. Brown, entering his 14th NFL season, has been with the Giants since 2013. In his three seasons, he’s connected on 77 of 84 field-goal attempts.
