New York Giants sign veteran CB Breon Borders

On Sunday, the New York Giants announced the signing of veteran cornerback Breon Borders to fill the vacancy left by the release of quarterback Nathan Rourke.

Borders, who turned 29 last week, is a well-traveled player. The Giants are his 13th stop in the NFL. His career began as an undrafted free agent when he left Duke for the Oakland Raiders in 2017.

Since then, Borders has spent time with Buffalo, Houston, Jacksonville, Washington, Pittsburgh, Miami, Tennessee, Arizona, Chicago, Atlanta and, most recently, New England.

Borders has played in 32 NFL games (including six as a starter), with his busiest stretch coming with Tennessee in 2020-21, when he played in 17 games with five starts.

Current Giants defensive coordinator Shane Bowen was an assistant with the Titans during that time.

Over seven seasons, Borders recorded 42 tackles (35 solo, one for loss), one QB hit, one fumble recovery, seven pass deflections and one interception.

If selected, Borders also has special teams experience.
