The New York Giants are reportedly adding a veteran free agent to their defense, but not one that fans might have expected. Duke Ihenacho, a five-year veteran who spent the last two seasons with the Washington Redskins, will reportedly join the Giants.
The Giants had been linked this week to defensive end Devin Taylor, who visited Monday, and linebacker Gerald Hodges, who reportedly visited on Wednesday. Ihenacho’s name had not been mentioned as a possibility for the Giants.
Ihenacho, 27, is a 6-foot, 212-pound safety who started 10 games for the Redskins in 2016.
