The New York Giants are about to find out what they have in Daniel Jones after adding multiple pieces to the offense this offseason. The Giants have already added: John Ross, Kyle Rudolph and most recently and most notably, Kenny Golladay.
Golladay was one of the most highly valued players in all of free agency, let alone at the wide receiver position. His signing to a four-year deal with the Giants is a welcoming presence for Daniel Jones and this franchise as they try to navigate through what has been a pretty deflating NFC East in recent seasons. The signing of Golladay pairs him with the former first-round pick in Jones, and Golladay sounds ready to go.
When talking about Daniel Jones after he signed with the Giants, Golladay noted:
“[Jones] is still kind of fresh in the league, a little bit,” Golladay said, via Art Stapleton of northjersey.com. “I kinda wanna grow with him. I'm still growing as a player, and I feel like me and him can do some good things. We haven't gotten on the practice field yet, but, me and him both are very excited.”
The signing of Golladay brings a legitimate No. 1 wide receiver to the Giants. They still have Darius Slayton and Sterling Shepard along with Evan Engram in the passing game (throw in Saquon Barkley while you're at it), and now they've added Ross, Rudolph and Golladay to the mix as well.
Some were concerned with Golladay's hip injury last year and other ones he dealt with as well, but it didn't steer the Giants away from signing him. The four-year deal for Golladay is worth $72 million, with $40 million guaranteed.
In his last full season in 2019, Golladay hauled in 65 receptions for 1,190 yards and 11 touchdowns. His signing immediately takes New York's offense up another level.
