Giants Won't Pick Up Jonathan Stewart's Option
6 years agoThe New York Giants won't exercise running back Jonathan Stewart's 2019 option for his second season with the team, according to a source. J-Stew's salary cap hit in 2019 would have been $2.775 million, but they won't have any dead money and will actually receive a $250,000 cap credit. In his first year in the Big Apple, the 31-year-old was injured after just three games and finished with six carries for 17 yards. He's on his last legs and won't find much interest on the open market as he heads into his age-32 season.
