There aren’t many free agents worth pursuing at this time of year, but the ones who are out there are drawing plenty of attention.
According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, former Packers linebacker Desmond Bishop is “still deciding” between offers from the Giants, Chiefs and Vikings.
That would ostensibly exclude the Jaguars, who had been mentioned by Bishop himself as a possibility. Rapoport also mentioned that he heard the list was down to three.
If Bishop can get well and stay well, he’d be an upgrade for many teams. The Vikings were the first name most thought of, and his first visit. The Chiefs make sense for the John Dorsey connection from his Packers days. But the Giants are breaking in a brand new set of linebackers anyway, so adding Bishop wouldn’t disrupt anything that’s been installed to this point.
