New York Giants: Ryan Connelly returns to compete for starting position

The New York Giants’ 2019 4th round pick, Ryan Connelly, has returned from a severe injury. Connelly completely tore his ACL in week four against the Washington Football Team. Connelly was hitting his stride as one of the leaders on a terrible defense. Despite his efforts in the previous season, Connelly will have to win his spot back, this time from veteran linebacker David Mayo.

2019 Stats

Connelly only started in three games last year, but he made a huge difference on the mediocre Big Blue Wrecking Crew. Connelly recorded 20 tackles, 1.0 sacks, 2 interceptions, 2 pass deflections, and 2 tackles for loss.
