    The Giants’ hesitations about a Markus Golden free-agent reunion

    Markus Golden tallied more sacks last season than free agent Jadeveon Clowney has in any year of his career.

    The Giants have a new quarterback. Daniel Jones’ starting job is safe, but there is a new favorite for the No. 2 spot on the depth chart — last occupied somewhat uncomfortably by two-time Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning before retirement.

    There are luxuries and there are necessities and there are purchases made simply as replacements. Consider the Giants agreeing to terms Tuesday with tight end Levine Toilolo as the latter.
