The New York Giants have handed out several big contract extensions over the course of the 2023 off-season. However, it appears now that they’re set to allow safety Xavier McKinney to play out his rookie contract and address an extension in 2024.
Giants’ GM Joe Schoen revealed on WFAN’s “Evan and Tiki” show that the current plan is to “wait and get through the season.”
McKinney is only due to count $2.6 million against the Giants’ salary cap and the team is running low on cap space as the season nears.
“We don’t have a lot of cap space to do much more,” Schoen said.
