Giants release Booker

The Giants are releasing RB Devontae Booker, saving ~$2.1 million in cap space. Booker, almost 30, played 16 games last year and played well en route to 861 total yards. He underwent surgery for a thumb issue that dogged him late in the year but will be “good to go” for 2022, per beat writer Pat Leonard. The versatile Booker will likely battle for a #2 job elsewhere.
