ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Giants are planning to release WR JuJu Smith-Schuster.
Schefter adds that this move will coincide with the Giants signing RB Najee Harris.
Smith-Schuster, 29, was a second-round pick by the Steelers out of USC in the 2017 NFL Draft. He finished his four-year, $4.19 million rookie contract before re-joining the Steelers on a one-year, $8 million deal in 2021 and signed on with the Chiefs to a one-year deal in 2022.
The Patriots agreed to a three-year, $33 million contract with Smith-Schuster in 2023. New England then released him during training camp.
Smith-Schuster caught on with the Chiefs once more back in 2024 and returned to Kansas City last year on a one-year deal.
In 2025, Smith-Schuster appeared in all 17 games for the Chiefs and caught 33 passes for 345 yards receiving and a touchdown.
