The Giants released cornerback James Bradberry after failing to find a trade for the 2020 Pro Bowler, the team announced on Monday.
Dan Duggan of The Athletic first broke the news of Bradberry’s release, revealing that the move will save New York $10.1 million against the cap in 2022. The 28-year-old’s departure will also create $11.7 in dead money for the Giants this season.
New franchise general manager Joe Schoen had been trying to work out a trade involving Bradberry since before free agency began in March this offseason. Last week, he admitted that he thought there would be more interest in the six-year veteran from teams around the league.
