The New York Giants have agreed to a three-year contract extension with cornerback Greg Newsome, according to a person familiar with the deal who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the agreement had not been announced.
The extension keeps Newsome with the Giants through the 2029 season. Financial terms were not immediately disclosed.
Newsome, a first-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, has developed into a reliable starter in the Giants' secondary. The 24-year-old has appeared in 45 games with 38 starts over his first three-plus seasons, recording multiple interceptions and pass breakups.
The move signals the Giants' commitment to building around their young defensive core as they look to improve a unit that has shown flashes of potential.
