The search for a new starting defensive back in East Rutherford has finally concluded. On Monday, the New York Giants agreed to terms with veteran Logan Ryan on a one-year deal worth $7.5 million. It’s a great contract and move executed by Dave Gettleman — the Giants were able to acquire Ryan for lower than his prior $10 million annual asking price.
The aspect that stands out about the former Titan and Patriot is his ability to portray sheer versatility. His 113 combined tackles, four picks, and 18 pass breakups from last year prove he can be physical but also make plays in the passing game, a significantly important quality for a defensive back in a pass-happy league.
