New York adds more wide receiver depth
Veteran wide receiver Zach Pascal is signing a one-year contract with the New York Giants, per NFL insider Mike Garafolo.
Pascal, 30, is a seven-year veteran who spent four seasons with the Indianapolis Colts, one with the Philadelphia Eagles and the last two years with the Arizona Cardinals. Giants wide receivers coach Mike Groh was was Pascal in Indianapolis in 2020 and 2021 when he caught a combined 82 passes.
Pascal, 6-foot-2, 215 pounds, played only 68 offensive snaps for the Cardinals in 2024. He was never targeted. He did play a career-high 278 special teams snaps, the third consecutive season in which he played more than 200 special teams snaps.
Pascal is the second veteran wide receiver to join the Giants in as many days. Lil’Jordan Humphrey signed with the Giants on Friday.
The Giants’ biggest free agent monetary outlays have been on defense, where they added cornerback Paulson Adebo (three years, $54 million), safety Jevon Holland (three years, $45.3 million) and edge defender Chauncey Golston (three years, $18 million).
The signings on the offensive side have mostly been about adding depth.
