The New York Giants loaded up at tight finish this offseason, signing veterans Chris Manhertz and Jack Stoll in free company earlier than choosing Penn State’s Theo Johnson within the 2024 NFL draft.
These choices have been made, partly, because of the uncertainty surrounding Darren Waller. He has been away from the group considering retirement and basic supervisor Joe Schoen reportedly expects him to stroll away after only one season in East Rutherford.
ESPN’s Mike Clay was already 50-50 on the Giants’ tight ends group earlier than the Waller uncertainty and his take is more likely to turn out to be extra adverse as soon as Waller does formally file retirement paperwork with the league. However for now, he’s nonetheless technically a member of the Giants’ 90-man roster.
