Linebacker David Mayo

Mayo has been a bit of a surprise for the Giants this season after being picked up when the San Francisco 49ers let him go during final roster cuts. He was a Gettleman pick from his Carolina days and solid special teamer.

After rookie Ryan Connelly went down with a knee injury in Week 4, Mayo stepped in and has been one of the Giants’ most aggressive and productive defenders.

Even with Connelly returning, the Giants will be seeking to upgrade at inside linebacker this offseason, but that should not preclude them from staying in business with Mayo, a player who will play solid on teams and serve as depth at ILB.
