According to a report by Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the New York Giants have advised defense attorney James Bradbury that he will be released.
This means that Bradbury – who will start his seventh season in the NFL – will be available to Kansas City Chiefs without taking his salary of 13.5 million dollars for 2022 – or renegotiating the contract for a 28-year-old defender.
Chiefs are reportedly among the teams trying to trade with Bradbury – but that was before the team invested in Washington’s first round of cornerbacks, Trent McDuffie, Fayetteville’s fourth cornerback, Joshua Williams and seventh-round. Marshall Cornerback / Safety Nazi Johnson. And then, two days after the draft, the team sent a conditional selection from the seventh round for 2024 to Houston Texas to acquire 25-year-old cornerback Lony Johnson, who has one more year left on the rookie contract.
Bradbury was steady in four years with the Carolina Panthers and two in New York – but may have peaked in 2020 when he made the Pro Bowl, after crossing three assists, forcing a pair of shuffles and holding back quarterbacks to a 81.2 rating. .
Will Kansas City general manager Brett Witch be interested in Bradbury?
Aaron Wilson of the Pro Football Network – which mainly covers Texans – thinks so.
The Texans were among the teams with which the giants discussed scenarios for trading with James Bradbury, according to a source in the league. However, the trade for a possible choice in a later round was never completed due to the large money gap in a potential long-term deal. The Chiefs are expected to continue to be Brabury’s suitors
