New York Giants Sign John Jerry: The New York Giants announced on Friday that they have officially signed unrestricted free agent offensive guard/tackle John Jerry (Miami Dolphins). The contract is reportedly a 1-year, $770,000 deal with $25,000 in guaranteed money. The 27-year old Jerry, who was drafted in the 3rd round of the 2010 NFL Draft, started all 32 games at right guard for the Dolphins the past two seasons. He was one of the players cited in the infamous Jonathan Martin bullying case.

“We did our homework on John, like we do with every player we sign,” said General Manager Jerry Reese. “We were satisfied with the answers we got about John as a player and person.”

Because of this move, we have updated the New York Giants Free Agent Signings (with scouting report), New York Giants 2014 Free Agency Scorecard, and Roster sections of the website.
