Giants sign DBs Maurice Canady, Khalil Dorsey
In a move to bolster its depleted secondary, the New York Giants have reportedly inked free-agent defensive backs Maurice Canady and Khalil Dorsey to deals.
Canady played eight games last year for the Dallas Cowboys, recording six tackles. The 27-year-old was placed on IR after suffering a concussion in Week 6 against the New England Patriots, keeping him out of action for the next eight games.
A sixth-round pick of the Baltimore Ravens in 2016, Canady has played six seasons in the NFL for the Ravens, Jets and Cowboys. Over 40 career games, Canady has recorded 86 tackles and one interception.
Dorsey was signed as an undrafted free agent out of Northern Arizona by the Ravens in 2020. He saw action in six games during his rookie season, playing 94 special teams snaps and five defensive snaps and recording two tackles. The 24-year-old missed all of last season with a shoulder injury.
With the additions of Canady and Dorsey, the Giants are hoping to fill the void left behind by released cornerback James Bradberry.
The Giants released the Pro Bowler on May 9 in a salary-cap move, creating $10.1 million in cap savings.
