The New York Giants are expected to sign former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney to a one-year contract, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The deal is reportedly worth up to $10 million, making Mooney one of the most prominent signings at the position during this free agency cycle.
The agreement was finalized by Mooney’s representatives, David Mulugheta and AJ Stevens of Athletes First. The addition of Mooney provides a high-caliber veteran weapon for quarterback Jaxson Dart as the Giants look to bolster their offensive unit. Mooney was considered one of the top players available at his position on the open market.
Before his stint with the Falcons, Mooney established himself as a productive deep threat during his time with the Chicago Bears. His ability to stretch the field is expected to be a central component of the Giants' offensive strategy moving forward. Further details regarding the structure of the contract have not yet been released.
