The New York Giants have made their second pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, selecting cornerback Colton Hood from the University of Tennessee with the 37th overall selection in the second round. The 6-foot, 190-pound defensive back was a standout performer for the Volunteers, recording 43 tackles, 10 passes defended, and two interceptions in his final season. With the Giants' secondary in need of a boost, Hood's addition could provide a much-needed injection of speed and athleticism to the team's defensive backfield. As the Giants look to build a more formidable defense, Hood's potential to develop into a shutdown corner will be closely watched by fans and coaches alike.
