The Chris and Joe Show: Reacting to the start of the negotiating window

The unofficial start to the NFL’s free agency period has been a wild one.

The New York Giants got the day started by placing the non-exclusive franchise tag on defensive tackle Leonard Williams. The Arizona Cardinals stole the day’s headlines with a blockbuster (and roundly applauded, at least for their side of things) trade sending David Johnson to the Houston Texans for receiver DeAndre Hopkins.

The Giants largely went quiet after tagging Williams and placing the second-round tender on kicker Aldrick Rosas.

At least until about 7:00 p.m, when the Adam Schefter broke the (future) signing of cornerback James Bradberry.

We also heard other rumors and whispers as the day went on.

The Chris and Joe Show is here to break down the news of the day, as well as the rumors we’re hearing. And don’t forget to stay with Big Blue View for all the Giants’ free agency news as we get it.
