The New York Giants were forced to let veteran Pro Bowl cornerback James Bradberry go this offseason due to salary cap constraints. That pushed the onus of the No. 1 cornerback duties to another young veteran, Adoree’ Jackson.
Jackson is the dean of the Giants’ cornerback room, which is all new to him as he is still just 26 years old this summer.
“That’s the strangest thing,” Jackson told reporters this week. “I mean I came in and they thought I was super young and now that the roles reversed, I’m not old but in the middle, and they are super young like 20, 21. It’s crazy just to see the difference in the age gap.”
