Top Greg Newsome II News

  • Giants' Greg Newsome: Set for Monday night

    Newsome (ribs) does not have any injury designation ahead of Monday night's game against the Rams, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Newsome upgraded to full participation in Saturday's practice after being limited Thursday and Friday. The cornerback has overcome his rib injury just in time to suit up for Monday night's game. With Deonte Banks (calf) still questionable to play, Newsome's presence will be huge for a Giants defense that will have to deal with Davante Adams and maybe Puka Nacua (hip).

  • Giants' Greg Newsome: Tending to issue with ribs

    Newsome (ribs) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    The exact nature of his injury is still unknown, but Newsome's status for Week 2 is now up in the air. If he can't return to practice in full Friday or Saturday, he might end up carrying an injury designation on the final injury report before Monday night's game against the Rams.

  • Giants' Greg Newsome: Not listed on injury report

    Newsome (knee) was not listed on the injury report following Wednesday's practice.

    Newsome was working through a knee issue during training camp, but his full participation in Wednesday's practice indicates that he'll play against the Cowboys on Sunday. Newsome joined the Giants in March on a one-year, $10 million contract, and he projects to start opposite Deonte Banks at outside corner, while Paulson Adebo and rookie second-rounder Colton Hood provide depth at the position. Newsome appeared in 12 regular-season games for the Jaguars in 2025, finishing with 29 tackles (23 solo) and six pass defenses (including one interception).

  • Giants' Greg Newsome: Dealing with knee issue

    Newsome (knee) will not play in Saturday's preseason game against the Vikings, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

    It is unclear when exactly Newsome picked up the knee issue. The cornerback is set to start opposite Paulson Adebo (hamstring), who is also not playing in Saturday's game, during the regular season. The Giants will likely roll with Deonte Banks and Colton Hood for the majority of snaps at cornerback throughout the preseason.

  • Giants' Greg Newsome: Joining Big Blue

    Newsome is slated to sign a one-year deal worth up to $10 million with the Giants, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Following a 13-game stint (including playoffs) with the Jaguars, Newsome has found a new home in New York after spending his first four full NFL seasons with the Browns. Despite recording 32 total tackles and six passes defensed, including one interception, during his time in Jacksonville, the 2021 first-round pick struggled in coverage, allowing a 107.5 passer rating when targeted. However, he's shown flashes throughout his career, most notably during the 2023 season when he posted 49 total tackles, including 0.5 sacks, and 14 passes defensed, including two interceptions, while allowing a 74.8 passer rating when targeted. Now in New York, Newsome is expected to operate as one of the Giants' top boundary corners during the 2026 season.

  • Jaguars' Greg Newsome: Finishes 2025 season with Jags

    Newsome appeared in 17 regular-season games between the Browns (five games) and Jaguars (12 games) in 2025 and accumulated 52 tackles (41 solo) and nine pass defenses (one interception).

    Newsome started the season with Cleveland before being traded to the Jaguars in early October. He played a key role in both teams' defenses, and despite dealing with shoulder, hamstring and ankle injuries throughout the season, he ended the 2025 campaign with a career high in total tackles. Newsome enters the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and should attract offers from teams looking to upgrade their secondary.

  • Jaguars' Greg Newsome: Cleared despite limited practices

    Newsome (shoulder) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's wild-card round game against the Bills.

    Newsome was limited by a shoulder injury in practice throughout the week but will be available when the Jaguars host the Bills in Sunday's postseason matchup. The starting cornerback could be a key contributor since the normally run-heavy Bills offense may opt for a more pass-heavy approach to put the ball in star quarterback Josh Allen's hands against a Jaguars defense that was the best in the league at defending the run in the regular season.
