The New York Giants made a big splash in free agency this offseason when they signed James Bradberry, but another newcomer at cornerback is making waves this year.
Rookie Darnay Holmes, a fourth-round pick in the 2020 NFL draft out of UCLA, is proving to be a valuable part of the Giants defense.
Halfway through his first NFL season, Holmes is the only rookie corner in the league to have been targeted 15 times or more without giving up a touchdown reception, according to Pro Football Focus. Holmes has been targeted 39 times without allowing a score.
Holmes is already looking like a Day 3 bargain for the Giants.
