Black probably signed with the Giants because he saw an opportunity to impress coaches as a safety, a position where the Giants are likely looking to add some depth.
Black was able to earn almost a quarter of the defensive snaps last season for Green Bay which should give him confidence going into this training camp with the Giants.
But with Julian Love already in place and the drafting of Dane Belton, who possesses a similar skillset, Black is likely facing an uphill battle considering he is the weakest of the three safeties in coverage.
However, if defensive coordinator Wink Martindale falls in love with his physicality, it could go a long way towards raising his stock for a spot in the two-deep. If Black makes the team, it will most likely be because of his value as a special teamer.
His size and physicality are difficult to pass up. It makes him valuable on all special teams units, especially kickoff, kick return, and punt coverage, where speed and aggression are essential to the units’ success.
