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.

#Giants are signing CB Maurice Canady, per source. Some secondary help in wake of James Bradberry departure.
Canady has experience playing the boundary in Wink Martindale’s defense with Ravens. 6-1, 190. Good length. Was with Cowboys last year, also spent time with Jets in 2019.

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.
