Giants Dockery Signs Tender

Cornerback Kevin Dockery signed a one-year free agent tender for $1.54 million on Monday, agent Drew Rosenhaus said Monday.

The 25-year-old who starred in college at Mississippi State had 36 tackles and an interception in 13 games last season, he also returned a blocked field goal 71 yards for a touchdown in a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in December.

Dockery had until the end of the week to sign the offer. The Giants tendered Dockery, a restricted free agent, at a second-round level.

Dockery joined the Giants as an undrafted free agent in 2006. He has been a backup to Corey Webster and Aaron Ross the past two seasons.
