Giants sign DL Chauncey Golston to three-year, $19.5 million deal

The New York Giants have signed former Dallas Cowboys defensive end Chauncey Golston to a three-year, $19.5 million contract. Golston is coming off a breakout season, where he recorded career highs of 56 tackles and 5.5 sacks in 2024. His versatility allows him to play both on the edge and inside, enhancing the Giants' already strong defensive line alongside Kayvon Thibodeaux and Brian Burns. The move not only bolsters the Giants' pass rush but also serves to weaken a division rival. Golston, drafted in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft, has appeared in 64 games throughout his career. His addition is seen as a strategic enhancement for the Giants as they look to improve their defensive capabilities in the upcoming season.
