The New York Giants continue to struggle in securing veteran cornerbacks as Stephon Gilmore signs with the Minnesota Vikings for $10 million, leaving the Giants without a key defensive asset. Coach Brian Daboll had hoped to bolster the secondary with Gilmore, a two-time All-Pro, but the team's budget constraints prevented this crucial acquisition. The Giants previously missed opportunities to sign other prominent cornerbacks, including Tre'Davious White and Darious Williams, who have both landed with the Rams. As it stands, Deonte Banks is set to lead the Giants' secondary, but the team is lacking experience and a clear leader in that area. Moving forward, their options may include seeking out veterans during the camp cuts as roster adjustments occur.
