The Giants shook their roster on Wednesday when linebacker Jon Beason retired and offensive linemen Geoff Schwartz and Will Beatty were cut. That's a team captain and two solid veterans, gone in the span of 15 minutes.
When something like that unfolds, the locker room is sure to notice, especially for a player and man of Beason's caliber.
Here were some of the reactions from former Giants teammates:
On Beason ...
Would not be surprised if Beason becomes a head coach in 3-5 years!

Definitely sad to see @jonbeason go, but the man has had a hell of a career, nothing but respect to a true class act.
