Overview

  • Multiple outlets, including ESPN and NFL Network, reported Saturday that Mooney agreed to a one-year contract with New York worth up to $10 million.
  • Philadelphia showed interest before Mooney chose the Giants, with his prior relationship with Nagy cited as a factor in the decision.
  • Mooney fills a near-term need in a receiver group reshaped by Wan'Dale Robinson’s departure and Malik Nabers’ ongoing ACL recovery, joining recent additions Calvin Austin III and Isaiah Likely.
  • In 2025 he was limited by a broken collarbone and hamstring issues, finishing with 32 receptions for 443 yards and one touchdown after a 992-yard season in 2024.
  • The 28-year-old, a 2020 fifth-round pick who posted 1,055 yards in 2021 with Chicago, finalized the deal through agents David Mulugheta and A.J. Stevens of Athletes First.
