Kenny Golladay: Bengals| Patriots| Giants| Contract| Fantasy…

Bengals
The Bengals were one of multiple teams that tried to sign wide receiver Kenny Golladay after free agency began. Cincinnati offered the Pro Bowler a one-year deal. The Bears also made a push for his services, before New York offered him a four-year, $72 million deal.
Patriots
ESPN has Golladay signing a five-year, $105 million deal with $50 million guaranteed with New England. Golladay would certainly help the Patriots’ issues at wide receiver. In 2019, Golladay caught 65 passes for 1,190 yards and a league-high 11 touchdowns. However, Golladay missed 11 games last season due to hamstring injuries.
Giants
Kenny Golladay endured another quiet game for the Giants, except for what appeared to be a shouting match on the sidelines late in their last-second 30-29 loss Thursday night in Washington.
The $72 million free-agent signing appeared to get into a brief, but heated, discussion with quarterback Daniel Jones in the closing minutes after the Giants went conservative following a late interception by James Bradberry in Washington territory. After two runs and an incomplete pass following Bradberry’s pick, the Giants took a 29-27 lead on Graham Gano’s fifth field goal of the game.

Fantasy
Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay caught three of his eight targets for 38 yards in Thursday’s loss to the Washington Football Team.
Through his first two games with the Giants, Golladay has caught just seven of his 14 targets for 102 yards and no touchdowns. By comparison, fellow wideout Sterling Shepard has caught 16 of his 19 targets for 207 yards and a touchdown. Golladay was brought in to be the WR1 in New Jersey this season, but it is Shepard who is stepping up through the first two weeks of the season.
