The New York Giants have made some major moves, and Drew and Rob are here to break it all down in another jam-packed episode of 2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates. With free agency in full swing, the Giants have re-signed a familiar face, added key pieces on defense, and continue to be linked to the biggest quarterback names in the NFL. This episode dives deep into all the latest Giants news, rumors, and updates as the team looks to reshape its roster for the 2025 season.  

The show kicks off with the Giants re-signing wide receiver Darius Slayton to a three-year, $36 million deal. After finishing the 2023 season with 39 catches for 573 yards and two touchdowns, Slayton remains a solid part of the Giants’ receiving corps. What does this signing mean for the offense, and could it indicate what direction the Giants will go in the draft? 

Next, the Giants addressed a major need on defense by signing cornerback Paulson Adebo. The former Saints CB, who played at Stanford alongside Bobby Okereke, comes to New York after an injury-limited season in which he recorded 52 tackles and three interceptions in just seven games. While he has been a solid CB2 for most of his career, his aggressive playstyle and struggles against the run could be a concern. The initial reports on his contract were all over the place, ranging from three years, $30 million to three years, $54 million, with conflicting details on guarantees. The guys break down what Adebo brings to the Giants and whether this signing is a bargain or an overpay.  

The defensive reinforcements didn’t stop there, as the Giants also signed veteran defensive lineman Roy Robertson-Harris to a two-year, $10 million deal. Standing at 6’5” and 290 pounds, the 31-year-old spent last season with both the Jaguars and Seahawks, appearing in 17 games with two starts. He recorded 20 tackles, four tackles for loss, two sacks, and five QB hits while playing 34 percent of defensive snaps. While his PFF grades weren’t impressive, Robertson-Harris brings experience and depth to a defensive line that needed reinforcements. Could this be the first step in rebuilding the defensive front, or is this simply a depth move?  

One of the biggest topics of the episode revolves around the ongoing quarterback carousel. The Giants are still waiting on a decision from Aaron Rodgers, who has been linked to both New York and the Pittsburgh Steelers. While Rodgers takes his time deciding his future, other quarterbacks have already landed in new homes. Zach Wilson is heading to the Dolphins, Josh Dobbs is joining the Patriots, and Kenny Pickett was traded from the Eagles to the Browns. Meanwhile, Justin Fields signed with the Jets, Sam Darnold is now a Seahawk, and Jimmy Garoppolo is staying with the Rams. With Jameis Winston in talks with the 49ers and Chargers, and Russell Wilson considering the Titans, the quarterback market is rapidly changing. Drew and Rob debate whether the Giants should be waiting on Rodgers or if they should pursue other options. Could Kirk Cousins still be in play? 

The episode then shifts to a disturbing off-field story as Odell Beckham Jr. finds himself named in a lawsuit.
