It’s a Ravens reunion in New York as John Harbaugh improves his offense by bringing his former tight end to the Giants.
Likely recorded 307 receiving yards last season with the Baltimore Ravens. He posted a career-high 477 yards and six receiving touchdowns in 2025.
Edmunds was ranked No. 36 among the top free agent signings thus far this year.
The Giants added Edmunds to a new-look defense under coordinator Dennard Wilson and coach John Harbaugh. The 27-year-old is a two-time Pro Bowler and tallied 14 interceptions and 8.5 sacks throughout his career with both the Bills and Bears.
The Virginia native signed a three-year, $36 million deal with the Giants last winter. Edmunds ranked No. 3 in the NFL in interceptions last season with four. He also recorded a sack on the year as a member of the Chicago Bears.
