New York Giants cornerback James Bradberry (24) looks on between plays during the second half of an NFL football game against the Washington Football Team, Sept. 16, 2021, in Landover, Md. The Giants have released Bradberry. A starter for the team the last two seasons, including making the Pro Bowl in 2020, Bradberry is a salary cap casualty. He was due for a $21.9 million cap hit, so cutting him Monday, May 9, 2022 will save about $10 million. The team can designate him a post-June 1 release and save another $1.5 million on the cap for 2022. (AP Photo/Terrance Williams)
