Monday has been a day of goodbyes for the New York Giants. Wide receiver Victor Cruz and running back Rashad Jennings have been released, and now comes word that free-agent tight end Larry Donnell will not be brought back.
That isn’t a surprise. Donnell disappeared from the Giants’ tight end rotation after starting the first six games, as the team apparently tired of his struggles with blocking and ball security. Younger players Will Tye and Jerell Adams passed the 28-year-old Donnell on the Giants’ depth chart, and he ended the season with only 15 catches.
