New York Giants news, 1/5 – Here’s a free safety the Giants should target

Error 0:

The New York Giants could be in the market for a starting free safety this offseason, considering the lackluster job Antoine Bethea did in coverage in 2019. Bethea played well against the run but struggled in the secondary, tallying six passes defended.

Bethea’s struggles spread across several categories, specifically interceptions (1 – ranking 43rd), targets (25 – ranked 50th), receptions allowed (17 – ranked 49th). Moving on from the veteran defender is not a matter of how, but when for the Giants, who are looking to bolster their defense in the coming months.

General manager Dave Gettleman did draft Julian Love out of Notre Dame, with the purpose of developing him into a hybrid cornerback.
