The New York Giants have completed a trade to sign Carolina Panthers linebacker Jon Beason, according to a report.
The 28-year-old has struggled with injuries for the past two seasons and has played only five games out of a possible 32.
However, the Giants moved to bring in an experienced player to shore up their defense after their winless start to the season by sending a late round 2014 Draft pick to the Panthers for his services, according to ProFootballTalk.com.
The Panthers are 1-2 in their season going into week five.
