If there’s one defensive spot on the New York Giants roster that’s absolutely depleting, it’s at the inside linebacker position. Big Blue has dealt with injuries to Alec Ogletree, Tae Davis, and rookie Ryan Connelly already this year. The latter is out for the rest of the season after tearing his ACL in a Week 4 win over the Washington Redskins.
The Giants could look to free agency to combat this. Per reports, that’s exactly what they’re doing. According to Art Stapleton of USA Today, Big Blue is expressing interest in linebacker Deone Bucannon.
