Veteran Cornerback Brings Experience and Playmaking
The New York Giants agreed to terms with cornerback Paulson Adebo, pending a physical.
At 6-1 and 192 pounds, Adebo offers a strong blend of size, athleticism, and experience.
A steady presence in New Orleans, he started 51 of 52 games across his first four NFL seasons.
During that span, the veteran corner recorded 251 total tackles and 43 passes defensed.
His impact also included 10 interceptions, seven tackles for loss, and four forced turnovers.
Adebo’s Breakout Season Cut Short by Injury
In 2023, Paulson Adebo posted the best numbers of his career. He finished the season with 76 tackles, four interceptions, and 18 passes defensed. That total ranked third in the entire NFL. He also forced two fumbles and recovered two more, showing a knack for creating turnovers. Even more impressive—he notched three interceptions in just seven starts. Unfortunately, a broken femur ended his season early.
Despite the setback, his impact on the field was clear.
Adebo Expected to Lead the Cornerback Room
The Giants are counting on Adebo to bounce back quickly and step into a major role.
If fully recovered, he’s expected to lead the secondary as the team’s starting No. 1 cornerback.
His ball skills, experience, and toughness bring immediate value to a young and developing group.
A strong training camp and preseason could solidify his spot at the top of the depth chart.
This signing not only fills a need but also adds healthy competition to a unit still forming its identity.
How Adebo fits into the Giants’ defensive scheme will be a key storyline to watch in the weeks ahead.
