Editor’s note: Initial reports from ESPN suggested the Giants would save $6.3 million with the release of Ryan. Those reports have proven incorrect. - The New York Giants released a veteran defensive back on Thursday but it wasn’t the one everyone expected. - Safety Logan Ryan, a defensive captain, was the player let go, not cornerback James Bradberry, who the Giants are still hoping to trade. - Ryan announced his release and said his goodbyes via Twitter. The Giants later confirmed the transaction. - - Thank You NY Captain Log Out pic.twitter.com/Pl6m2Y3nJC - — Logan Ryan (@RealLoganRyan) March 17, 2022 - - - Initial reports suggested the Giants would save around $6.3 million in cap space based on contractual guarantee dates. However, the actual savings will be as little as $775,000. - - Deleted my Logan Ryan tweet. Appears I got bad information. - The move only saves $775,000 it turns out. - — Zack Rosenblatt (@ZackBlatt) March 17, 2022 - - - - Final answer on this (probably): Giants clear $775,000 in cap space by cutting Logan Ryan, per multiple sources. It was not a cost-cutting move. - (I know there are reports that say it's more and there is confusion over his guaranteed money. But this is my final answer for now).
