The New York Giants added some depth to their
defensive line days before the NFL draft, signing defensive tackle
A’Shawn Robinson to a one-year contract on Monday.
The
Giants announced the signing of the 28-year-old former Alabama player
who won a Super Bowl with the Los Angeles Rams in the 2021 season.
Robinson
was drafted by the Detroit Lions in 2016 and spent four years in the
Motor City before signing with the Rams and spending three years in Los
Angeles. He appeared in 10 games last season before missing the final
seven with a knee injury.
The NFL draft starts on Thursday night.
The
Giants made the playoffs last season for the first time since 2016.
However, they struggled on defense, finishing in the lower third of the
league.
Since
free agency started in March, the Giants have signed defensive tackle
Rakeem Nunez-Roches, linebacker Bobby Okereke and safety Bobby McCain in
addition to Robinson. New York also has defensive linemen Dexter
Lawrence and Leonard Williams returning to anchor their 3-4 front.
Robinson
has 293 tackles, seven sacks, five forced fumbles, three recovered
fumbles and an interception of a Drew Brees pass that he returned for a
touchdown in 2017.
