Ragland, 27, was originally a second-round pick of the Bills in the 2016 NFL draft. After a year in Buffalo, he joined the Kansas City Chiefs from 2017-2019 and earned a ring as part of the Super Bowl LIV championship team.
In 2020, the 6-foot-2, 252-pound Ragland played for the Detroit Lions. He officially signed with the Giants in March of 2021.
In 58 career games (38 starts), Ragland has recorded 212 tackles (14 for a loss), seven QB hits, 3.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, two passes defensed and one interception.
With the Giants, Ragland will compete with linebackers Tae Crowder, Carter Coughlin and others for playing time alongside veteran Blake Martinez.
