Giants LB Tremaine Edmunds Suffered Season-Ending Shoulder Injury

New York will subsequently place Edmunds on injured reserve. 

The hits keep coming for the Giants, now losing another significant player for the rest of the year. New York has already lost key players like QB Jaxson Dart, OLB Brian Burns, and WR Braxton Berrios.

Edmunds, 27, was drafted by the Bills in the first round out of Virginia Tech in 2018. He signed a four-year, $12.659 million rookie deal with the Bills following the 2018 NFL Draft that included a $7.286 million signing bonus.

Buffalo exercised the fifth-year option for Edmunds, which paid him $12.726 million in 2022. He later signed a four-year, $72 million contract with the Bears that includes $50 million guaranteed. 

He was entering the final year of that deal and set to make a base salary of $15 million in 2026 when Chicago released him last offseason. The Giants signed him to a three-year, $36 million contract. 

In 2026, Edmunds appeared in six games for the Giants and recorded 50 tackles, three tackles for loss, two sacks, and two pass defenses.
