Veteran cornerback Jalen Mills was released by the New York Giants this week after spending his duration with the team on the non-football injury list due to a calf strain and being unavailable to participate in the entire Giants training camp.
Mills, who played for the New England Patriots in 2023, and was just signed by the Giants this year, never took the field for his most recent team. His contract guaranteed $300,000, a sum the Giants seem fine parting with since it freed up room to sign safeties Raheem Layne and Jonathan Sutherland.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter broke the news on Jalen Mills this morning on Twitter.

Jalen Mills will likely see a bid soon now that he is a free agent, reports indicate he has recovered from his injury at the time of being released and the Super Bowl Champion with valuable postseason experience has put up a consistent number of tackles in previous seasons for the Philadephia Eagles and New England Patriots.
