Signing a 30-year-old halfback isn’t going to excite a fanbase. But considering what Jonathan Stewart can provide for the New York Giants, he’s a shrewd gamble to take.
Tuesday afternoon, the Giants agreed on a two-year, $6.9 million deal to bring Stewart to East Rutherford. They announced the signing via Twitter Tuesday night.
