New York Giants har officielt sikret sig tjenesterne fra den erfarne outside linebacker Khalid Kareem, som kommer til klubben som free agent. Beslutningen blev bekræftet via NFL’s officielle transaktionsrapporter i går.
Som led i den nye tilgang har Giants samtidig placeret cornerback Thaddeus Dixon på den skadede reserve-liste. Dette skridt frigiver plads i trupstyrken til Kareems tilkomst.
Kareem, der tidligere har spillet for Atlanta Falcons, har i de seneste to sæsoner opbygget erfaring både i forsvaret og på special teams. I 2025 nåede han at deltage i 71 defensive plays og 25 på special teams, hvor han registrerede syv tackles og en pass deflection. Derudover opnåede han én interception og et tvunget fumble i løbet af sin karriere, der spænder over 34 kampe med ét start.
Den tidligere femterunde-draftvalg i 2020 af NFL Draften har tidligere repræsenteret Cincinnati Bengals, Indianapolis Colts og Chicago Bears, inden han landede i Atlanta. Med sin alsidighed og erfaring forventes Kareem at styrke Giants’ defensive enhed betydeligt i den kommende sæson.
