EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The New York Giants are letting three-time Pro Bowl safety Landon Collins test the free-agent market without any restrictions. The Giants on Tuesday elected not to put a franchise tag on their leading tackler in each of his four seasons with the team. Collins’ tweet came less than three hours before the NFL deadline for teams to put a franchise tag on an unrestricted free agent. “I want to thank the Giants organization for believing in me and allowing me to have 4 great years in NY,” Collins tweeted. He returned to his natural strong safety spot after a year as the free safety and had 125 tackles and five interceptions, earning All-Pro honours.
