The New York Giants acquired offensive lineman Ben Bredeson in a 2021 trade with the Baltimore Ravens. He went on to start 24 games over the last two years, both at guard and at center, but he will no longer suit up in blue as he agreed to terms with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Friday.
The #Buccaneers are signing former #Giants G Ben Bredeson to a one-year deal worth up to $3.5 million, source says. A former #Ravens fourth-round pick, Bredeson started 16 games last season.
The Giants’ offensive line was awful last season. Changes needed to happen along the line, the Giants have to strengthen the wall protecting Daniel Jones.
Was Bredeson the weakest link? Not remotely, but his loss is just the beginning. The entire line needs an overhaul and general manager Joe Schoen has made that a focus this offseason.
John Michael Schmitz will be around to play center, provided he can stay healthy, but the Giants will have to find additional resources to ensure Jones can remain under center.
