Antoine Bethea: Cut by Giants
The Giants will release Antoine Bethea on Wednesday, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.The move clears up just $2.75 million in cap space, so it's a pretty clear indication the Giants don't view Bethea as a plus starter at this point. The 35-year-old has maintained IDP relevance late into his career, reaching triple-digit tackles in 2016, 2018 and 2019. That said, there's no guarantee Bethea finds another starting job elsewhere.
