The New York Giants have made several adjustments to their roster in recent days and on Wednesday, finally made one of their most anticipated decisions of the offseason — declining the option on veteran safety Antoine Bethea.
The Athletic’s Dan Duggan reports that the Giants will not exercise the option on Bethea, thereby creating an additional $3 million in salary cap space and leaving no dead money.
Bethea will now become an unrestricted free agent.
No surprise here, but the Giants won't exercise the option on safety Antoine Bethea's contract for 2020, per source. This will free up $3M in cap space and leave no dead money.
