Brandon Marshall joins Giants on two-year deal
The New York Giants signed wide receiver Brandon Marshall, formerly of the New York Jets, to a two-year, $12 million contract.
Marshall is giving the Giants a bit of a hometown discount, but it allows him to join a contender for what could be the final two years of the 11-year veteran's career. Following a miserable 2016 campaign with the Jets, Marshall should be able to rebound nicely playing opposite Odell Beckham in a pass-happy offense. Despite turning 33 in two weeks, Marshall is back on the WR2 radar.
Among the 41 receivers with at least 100 targets in 2016, Marshall's Reception Net Expected Points per target of 0.58 ranked sixth-worst. That likely can be blamed on abysmal quarterback play, however.
