Signed by the Giants on June 1 as the closest 1:1 potential replacement for Olszewski on the 90-man roster. Seven-year veteran with similar skillset and experience; career 11.3 yards per return average on 100 punt returns and 24.9-yard average on 91 kickoff returns. Career-best 46 catches with the New York Jets in 2021 when he was First-Team All-Pro, averaging 13.1 yards on punt returns and 30.4 on kickoff returns. Primary concern is whether back-to-back injury-plagued seasons (torn ACL with Miami Dolphins in 2024, hamstring injuries with Houston Texans) have diminished his quickness and explosion; played only 10 games over those two years.
