The New York Giants have agreed to a one-year contract worth up to $10 million with veteran cornerback Greg Newsome II. Newsome spent the 2025 season split between the Cleveland Browns and Jacksonville Jaguars.
Why it matters
The Giants are looking to bolster their secondary after a disappointing 2025 season, and Newsome provides experienced depth at the cornerback position.
The details
Newsome, a 2021 first-round pick by the Browns, has started 59 games over his five-year career. He was rated as the No. 66 cornerback among those who played at least 50% of the maximum snaps at the position last season. The Giants have several other cornerbacks under contract for 2026, including Paulson Adebo, Deonte Banks, Dru Phillips, Korie Black, and Rico Payton.
- Newsome spent the first five games of the 2025 season with the Browns before being traded to the Jaguars in October.
