The once hard-hitting Alabama safety inked a new deal with the New York Giants on Thursday morning. He once played for the Giants from 2015 to 2018.
Collins, the Louisiana native, spent three seasons at Alabama. He was a unanimous All-American during his junior season in 2014. He was a key part of Alabama’s first College Football Playoff appearance in 2015 against Ohio State.
Following the season finale, he declared for the 2015 NFL Draft and was drafted No. 33 overall by the New York Giants. Collins would spend four years with the organization before signing as a free agent with the Washington Commanders.
Now, he will reunite with the Giants once again. He is scheduled to join the team in London but isn’t expected to play this weekend against the Green Bay Packers. It will be an interesting reunion considering how his free agency unfolded in 2018 when he chose to sign with a division rival.
