The Giants kicked off the week with three contract signings.
Two of the deals belong to members of this season’s draft class. The team announced that fifth-round picks Ryan Connelly and Darius Slayton have signed four-year deals. They also announced that defensive lineman John Jenkins has re-signed with the team.
Jenkins joined the team last September and appeared in seven games. The 2013 third-round pick by the Saints has also seen action with the Seahawks and Bears.
Connelly had 89 tackles, 10 tackles for loss and three sacks as a starting linebacker at Wisconsin last year. Slayton was the lone wide receiver drafted by the Giants this year and brings a lot of speed with him from Auburn. He caught 35 passes for 670 yards and five touchdowns last season.
