BREAKING: NY Giants Release CB James Bradberry After Failing To Trade Him | Full Cap Savings Details

The James Bradberry release finally happened today after months of Giants trade rumors swirled around. Joe Schoen is a man on a mission creating cap space for the Giants and Bradberry is the latest domino to fall. Cutting Bradberry creates $10.1 Million in cap space savings for the Giants while leaving $11.7 MM in dead money.

The Giants tried to trade Bradberry because his cap hit for the 2022 NFL season of $21.8 MM, but it’s clear that other NFL teams didn’t want him at that price either. The move puts the NY Giants at about $16 MM, which allows Joe Schoen to finalize signings with Kayvon Thibodeaux and Evan Neal, and the rest of the 2022 NFL Draft class. Giants news and Giants rumors will continue to pop up during NFL Free Agency.
