Landon Collins back in blue

[LennG]

 I always like dCollins, as a Giant. Very sorry when he left and to the Foreskins at that. He never really lived up to the hype over there, but glad he is back wearing blue.

What did he sign for, anyone?

I don't know if that was released yet

I can't believe Collins is only 28. It feels like ages ago that he was on the Giants.

Hopefully he still has juice left in the tank to do something greater than what we currently have at the LB/S position besides maybe McKinney.

I doubt very seriously Collins will play much. He's done and is probably a depth signing in the event of injury.

Collins owns a 54.7 Pro Football Focus grade (82.5 against the run) in 2021. He earned a career-best grade of 82.4 in 2016 as a member of the last Giants playoff team.

Although he's had some issues in coverage, Collins has never been "in the red" as a run defender or pass rushers. He's also only ever been in the red (2020) as a tackler once.


With Xavier McKinney excelling in coverage, Collins provides a solid option for Wink Martindale in terms of blitzing and run defense.

Collins takes the place of linebacker A.J. Klein on the Giants practice squad. He is being signed to the active roster by the Baltimore Ravens.

100% agreed, Ted; this is depth signing that probably doesn't extend beyond this season.

Probably still contributes more on D then Galloday or Tony does on O

Collins will contribute as much on O as Golladay, LOL.

He needs to get on the practice field and earn his spot   

Nothing is just given by Dabs   

He owes it to the guys on the 53 and PS players that were here before Collins came.

Collins has to beat them for a spot.

It's doable Smith made it to get elevated!

Or an injury pops up and they have no choice!

Plus a guy who wasn't in any training camp will need at least 2 or 3 weeks just to get into proper shape and learn the system

Guess he may be more then depth for injury purposes.
