The Giants have signed 26-year old John Busing. Busing played in 16 games for the Texans last season and he had 32 tackles, 3 passes defensed and 1 interception. He has now played in 43 games in parts of 4 years in the NFL and he has 57 tackles, 3 passes defensed and 1 interception. Busing will help out on special teams and provide depth to the defensive backfield so this signing will likely help the Giants in 2010.
The Giants have signed 33-year old linebacker Keith Bulluck to a 1-year deal. Bulluck played in 14 games for the Titans last season and he finished up with 108 tackles, he defensed 7 passes and he had 3 interceptions. Bulluck has now played in 157 games in his 10 years in the NFL and he has 1,057 tackles, 68 passes defensed, 18 sacks, he’s forced 15 fumbles and he has 19 interceptions (1 returned for a TD). Bulluck will be the starting middle linebacker for the Giants and he will be a stud as long as he can stay healthy.
The Giants have signed 27-year old WR/PR/KR Adam Jennings. Jennings played in 1 game for the Detroit Lions last season and he returned 1 kickoff for 8 yards. Jennings has played 4 years in the NFL appearing in 46 games in which he has caught 6 passes for 62 yards (10.3 avg) with 1 TD grab. He has also returned 54 punts for 337 yards (6.4 avg) and 25 kickoffs for 559 yards (22.4 avg). The Giants will likely give Jennings a chance to win a job on special teams in 2010.
The Giants have signed 31-year old strong safety Deon Grant to a 1-year deal. Grant played in all 16 games for the Seahawks last season and he finished up with 78 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss, 1 forced fumble, he defensed 8 passes and he had 3 interceptions. Grant has now played in 144 games in his NFL career and he has made 640 tackles, defensed 92 passes, he had 4.5 sacks, forced 2 fumbles and he had 26 interceptions. This was a excellent move for the Giants as Grant will team with Antrel Rolle to give them a very nice set of safeties for 2010.
The Giants have signed 29-year old QB Jim Sorgi to a 1-year deal to replace David Carr as Eli Manning’s backup. Sorgi did not play last season due to a shoulder problem but he has been cleared to return to action for 2010. Sorgi has played in 14 games in his NFL career and he has completed 99 of 156 passes (63.5%) for 929 yards with 6 TD passes and 1 INT (89.9 QB Rating). He also has carried the ball 31 times for 0 yards (0.0 ypc) in his NFL career. Sorgi doesn’t have David Carr’s arm strength but he is a solid backup QB.
