Rolle says he used a very poor, inappropriate example on Thursday to demonstrate how seriously he takes his job. "Obviously, there is no comparison between the men and women of our military putting their life on the line defending our country and what I do," Rolle said in a statement issued by the team early in the evening.

In the waning hours of the opening day of free agency, Rolle signed a five-year, $37 million contract that has $15 million in guaranteed money. The signing fills a major need for the Giants, who lost Kenny Phillips to a serious knee injury early last season. Rolle, who was recently released by the Cardinals, had four interceptions last season.
