Many New York Giants pundits have been calling for the re-signing of linebacker Markus Golden, who had a 10-sack season for Big Blue after inking a one-year, “prove-it” deal. It doesn’t appear that they will bring him back this season based on the moves they’ve made the past few days.
Instead of bringing Golden back, they are hoping to catch lightning in bottle with the Packers’ Kyler Fackrell.
Here are three things to know.
He is familiar with the Giants’ way
Fackrell, along with Blake Martinez, both played under current Giants defensive coordinator Patrick Graham in Green Bay in 2018 when he was the linebackers coach. The Giants like familiarity and these two signings are high in their wheelhouse.
