Giants sign Kelvin Benjamin, Corey Clement after tryouts at rookie minicamp

The two biggest winners from the Giants’ rookie minicamp weren’t rookies at all. Kelvin Benjamin and Corey Clement, a 30-year-old former first-round pick and a Super Bowl champion respectively, were signed by the team after participating in the event as veteran tryouts.

Benjamin has not played in the NFL since 2018, and his comeback attempt with the Giants will be at a new position. After playing wide receiver throughout his career, he is attempting to transition to tight end. His skillset as a receiver combined with his 6-5, 245-pound frame give him intriguing potential at the position

"He's a big guy," head coach Joe Judge said of Benjamin on Friday.
