Kenny G contract escalators

Although it costs $14.7 million to cut him, the Giants save almost $7 million by giving him the boot. I really wouldn’t be surprised to see him with the Rams next season.

That’s $7m they can use to overpay Danny Dimes since they had declined his now economical looking 5th yr option!

I think the Giants might want to let him test the FA market. If GB makes the playoffs it will be the only playoff team they beat, and that was early in the season. There’s a reason why they didn’t exercise the 5th year option. Reports out of NY are that Taylor may start the final game and let Jones sit. Jones may want to play because Taylor is likely to prove that he can be every bit as good as he has been under center.

Gezz guys still picking on poor Kenny the guy is gone and has had a rough way to go , what the sense in taking pop shots . Some need to get a life.

If Chark walks and gets paid elsewhere, I wouldn’t mind a 1 year flyer on Kenny Golladay for the low and draft a mid round rookie WR

Golladay could beat out Cephus and Benson I’d imagine

OMG, they killed Kenny?

yup… you’re correct!

Geez… that REALLY makes that comp pick look good.
I was just happy we didn’t pay KG… and I felt the same 2 months before he signed with the Giants. Never wavered on that one!!!

Giants fans are still waiting for Kenny’s first TD as a Giant with one game left in his second season. That shit is pretty hard to believe.

How about this one…oof

Saints signed WR Michael Thomas to a restructured contract.

The restructured deal reduces his 2023 base salary from $15.5 million to $1.2 million while adding a $31.8 million roster bonus in 2024. Thomas also received a $900K signing bonus. The renegotiation sets the stage for the Saints to move on from Thomas this offseason, as his 2024 salary becomes fully guaranteed if he’s on the roster the third day of the new league year. Thomas will likely be designated a post-June cut if he’s not back, allowing the Saints to spread his remaining guarantees over the next two years. Releasing Thomas results in a total dead-cap charge of $26 million for the Saints.

At least he’s still got his Muzak royalties to fall back on.

Jman - one of the things you may have missed is DC’s mantra of “no turds”. I don’t think KG passes that test. He’s somewhat of a turd.

I will go to the grave thinking Golladay quit on this team his last year here. So fine, he made the decision to put himself above the team. Good for him, that’s his decision to make and ended up getting a pretty good payday out of it. But as far as any sympathy from Lions fans…ha…F’ Golladay.

I like talking about Kenny G because he is such a great case study. He made it to the NFL by being a high level anti-turd. Something corrupted him and turned him off tot he game of football along the way.

Probably that signing bonus

Or maybe he just hates that big city

Kenny finally got his first TD…and it was against his former teammate, Darius Slay.

Fantastic catch as well, I wonder how long it’s going to take the Giants to release him?
