The New York Giants have agreed to terms with former Baltimore Ravens defensive back Ar’Darius Washington, per a report from Jordan Schultz. The Giants are signing Washington to a 1-year contract worth $3 million (per Conor Hughes) as he comes off of a 2025 season lost to a torn Achilles suffered last May.
The Giants had a hole on their secondary following the departure of cornerback Cor’Dale Flott to the Tennessee Titans. Washington, 26, has played in 30 career games, starting 10 in 2024 after primarily being a special teams player.
The Ravens initially signed Washington as an undrafted free agent out of TCU following the 2021 NFL Draft. He’s an under-sized defender at 5-foot-8 and roughly 176 pounds, but is a good athlete and an aggressive hitter who was a Freshman All American at TCU, as well as Freshman Defensive Player Of The Year for the Big 12.
Washington helps reinforce a Giants secondary that lost special teams ace and third safety Dane Belton to free agency as well as Flott.
Washington is also a familiar face for John Harbaugh, who is seeking to instill the type of culture in the Giants that he fostered in Baltimore.
