Giants signed RB Jashaun Corbin to a futures deal today, per source. The undrafted rookie out of Florida State had an encouraging preseason as a runner and returner. He sticks in the program entering 2023.
Can you please explain futures contracts?

I saw it last week, but I'm not very familiar with it.

It's just meant to lock up guys who aren't on NFL 53-man rosters for the next season. These almost always take place in January are are usually guys who were on the PS. But I expect our Nigerian OL to be re-signed too and perhaps some other street free agents or guys who were on other teams' practice squads.
plus to what Eric said

they don't count against the current season cap, they come in to effect for the off season 90-man roster.

Rahim Moore was an all-time great one :P
There's a lot to like about RB Jashaun Corbin!

Just look at the videos of this guy's last season at Florida State. He did everything. Big time plays, highly productive.

Expect all of the young players from the Giants' P-squad to be signed to futures deals. Here is who has signed so far, according to sources: RB Jashaun Corbin, WR Kalil Pimpleton, WR Jaydon Mickens, OL Devery Hamilton, OL Korey Cunningham and CB Zyon Gilbert. More to come...

Plus Solomon Kingsley who signed after week 18.

This may have been something akin to a big fat yawn, but given what Schoen/Daboll were able to do with “after thought” players this season, I’ll be taking a hard look-see at every single “fringe” personnel decision they make in the future!

I liked him this summer. Would we be comfortable with Breida, Brightwell, and Corbin if we let Barkley walk?
We had to have one of the most productive practice squads this year  
Matt M. : 1/22/2023 3:46 pm : link
in terms of playing time, contributions, etc. I'd be happy to sign all of them to future contracts then.

there's a thread below stating that Big Roy declined  
Del Shofner : 1/22/2023 4:38 pm : link
his future contract and is going back into the international program.
At this point, it seems the only PS members not signed are:  
Big Blue Blogger : 1/26/2023 12:41 pm : link
EDGE Quincy Roche
WR David Sills
WR James Washington
S Terrell Burgess

All have meaningful game experience. They may not have received offers from the Giants, or they may be hoping for better opportunities elsewhere.

Meant to tweet this out the other day: Dre Miller being listed by Giants as WR and not TE caught my attention. He was switching from UDFA WR to TE coming out of Maine this year and was TE this summer before his injury.
