Giants Explore Reunion with Former Safety Jabrill Peppers

Ahead of the 2025 NFL season, teams have finalized their 53-man rosters, and the New York Giants are already looking to make some changes. General manager Joe Schoen is actively seeking ways to upgrade the roster, particularly in the safety position.

One player that has caught the Giants' attention is Jabrill Peppers, who was recently released by the New England Patriots. Peppers, a former Giants player, was part of the package the team received from the Cleveland Browns in the Odell Beckham Jr. trade. He spent three seasons with the Giants, serving as a team captain for his final two years.

At 30 years old, Peppers could bring valuable veteran leadership to the Giants' young secondary. The team's current safety group is relatively inexperienced, and Peppers' familiarity with the organization and local ties as a New Jersey native could make him an attractive option for the Giants.

If Peppers still has something left in the tank, Schoen may decide to explore the possibility of bringing him back to the team. The Giants are always looking to improve their roster, and Peppers' release by the Patriots presents an opportunity for the team to potentially bolster their defensive backfield.
