Bromley

Bromley exited the Week 7 matchup against the Ravens and was spotted with his arm in a sling. The defensive tackle has appeared in just two games and played 27 snaps with the Saints.

A longtime reserve in New York, Bromley landed a deal after participating in New Orleans’ rookie minicamp. Bromley played 424 replacement-level snaps last season. Two weeks shy of his 26th birthday, he could make the Saints’ 53-man roster.

Hankins left for the Colts in free agency, leaving a starting spot open next to Damon Harrison. Bromley would seem to be the favorite, but the Giants spent a second-round pick on Dalvin Tomlinson and signed veteran Corbin Bryant. With that competition, Bromley will need a strong camp to win the job.

Bromley suffered a knee sprain in the third preseason game, but this practice puts him on track to play in the season opener.

It’s another blow to a Giants defense that also lost CB Eli Apple (ankle). The knee sprain confirms Bromley doesn’t have any structural damage, but he’ll be in a race to get cleared for Week 1.

Bromley generated minimal pre-draft buzz, but has the measurables and college production that generally translate to next-level success. He’s a three-technique penetrator. Bromley could conceivably grow into New York’s interior pass rusher of the future. He just turned 22 years old last month.

Bromley (6-foot-3 1/8, 306) reported to February’s Combine 26 pounds heavier than his college listing of 280, helping his stock. A three-year starter, Bromley tallied 25.5 career tackles for loss and 14 sacks, including ten as a senior with three forced fumbles. As Bromley just turned 22, he’s still growing into his body. An athletic interior penetrator, Bromley is a “three-technique” prospect with 5.06 speed and a 33 1/2-inch vertical. He also played some at end at Syracuse. Bromley will be a rotational player as a rookie in New York. He could grow into an every-down interior starter.

Bromley is accused of attempting to rape a 26-year-old woman he met online at a hotel. Bromley’s agent, Keko Payne, told the New York Daily News the allegations were “absolutely not” true, and police reportedly believe Bromley’s accuser has “significant credibility issues.” He has not been charged, but the investigation remains ongoing.

Bromley was accused of attempting to sexually assault a woman in a hotel early Saturday morning. The Post reports Bromley thought he was on a date, but one source said, “She turned out to be like a prostitute, and that’s not what he agreed upon.” Bromley reportedly left the hotel room after the woman asked him for money. Video shows the woman following Bromley out of the hotel and jumping on the hood of his car as he tried to leave. The New York Daily News reported Monday Bromley’s accuser has “significant credibility issues.”

Bromley allegedly set up a meeting with a 26-year-old woman he met online at a New York City hotel on Friday night. The woman alleges “Bromley got violent and tried to rape her following a consensual sexual act.” Bromley then allegedly hit the woman with his car as he drove away. Police were called to the scene at around 6:15 a.m. Saturday morning. The woman was taken to the hospital for treatment and evaluation. No arrests have been made. “We are aware of the situation and will continue to monitor it,” a Giants spokesperson said. “We have notified the league office per the league’s protocol. We will have no further comment as we understand this is an ongoing investigation.”
