Story summary

The New York Giants have signed two key players to two-year contract extensions: backup quarterback Jameis Winston and starting left guard Jon Runyan Jr.. Winston's extension is worth $13 million, while Runyan's is valued at $22 million with $21.5 million in guaranteed money. The deals provide salary cap flexibility for the team and ensure that both players will remain under contract through the end of 2028. Winston, who was previously set to become a free agent after the 2026 season, had been serving as a mentor to second-year quarterback Jaxson Dart and will continue in this role. Runyan is entering his third season with the Giants and has been a key part of the team's offensive line. The extensions could also help the Giants get under their current salary cap, which was around $1.18 million over the limit before the deals were announced.
