Giants sign WR Lil’Jordan Humphrey to enhance roster

The New York Giants have signed former Denver Broncos wide receiver Lil’Jordan Humphrey to a one-year contract. This move was announced by general manager Joe Schoen on Friday. Humphrey, who is 26 years old, has been in the NFL for six years. He started his career as an undrafted free agent with the New Orleans Saints in 2019. He played with the Saints until 2021, then spent a year with the New England Patriots before joining the Broncos for the last two seasons. Standing at 6-foot-4 and weighing 225 pounds, Humphrey has shown potential but has not produced a lot in terms of career stats. He has made 62 catches for 770 yards over his career. Last season was his best, with 293 yards from 31 receptions, including a notable 41-yard touchdown catch. Broncos coach Sean Payton, who coached Humphrey for five seasons, praised him for his blocking abilities. Humphrey will join other receivers on the Giants roster, including Malik Nabers and Darius Slayton. The Giants had a tough season last year, finishing with a 3-14 record. They will need more than Humphrey to improve their performance moving forward.
