NY Giants news: New York begins adding veteran defensive tackles
Key Points:
- Veteran defensive tackle Shelby Harris is signing with the New York Giants, a move confirmed by the team following initial reports by NFL insider Aaron Wilson.
- Harris, 35, is entering his 12th NFL season and has played for the Raiders, Broncos, Seahawks, and Browns, with the latter being his team for the past three years.
- The Giants, who only added sixth-round pick Bobby Jamison-Travis at defensive tackle in the 2026 NFL Draft, were expected to add veteran talent in free agency to bolster their defensive line.
- Harris played all 17 games last season for the Browns, recording 32 tackles, a sack, and four passes defensed over 509 defensive snaps.
- The Giants are likely to continue reinforcing their defensive tackle position, having shown interest in veterans D.J. Reader and Bonito Jones, while also facing a decision on Odell Beckham's potential return.
