Giants reportedly sign center Brenden Jaimes as injuries pile up
The Giants add to their offensive line depth after nagging injuries take their toll in camp
The New York Giants are reportedly signing center Brenden Jaimes, according to a report from The Athletic's Dan Duggan. Jaimes, 27, was drafted by the Los Angeles Chargers in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft and spent four years with the team before being released in the final cutdowns of 2025. He then played on the New England Patriots' practice squad.
Jaimes has appeared in 50 games throughout his career, primarily functioning as a special teams player but also providing depth at guard and center. The move to sign Jaimes follows injuries to starting center John Michael Schmitz, who suffered a head injury during practice, and reserve center Lucas Patrick, who is dealing with a knee injury.
Jaimes' experience with the Chargers' offensive scheme under coaches Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman could prove valuable as he steps in to support the Giants during their recovery period. The Giants have not yet officially announced the signing of Jaimes.
