The New York Giants had arguably the worst linebacker corps in the NFL last season. This offseason, general manager Joe Schoen made it a priority to bolster the position group, signing free agent LB Bobby Okereke to a four-year, $40 million deal.

Okereke will transform the Giants’ defense, providing Big Blue with a versatile skill set and a level of athleticism that was otherwise absent from the unit.
