With Darren Waller's NFL future uncertain, the New York Giants select Penn State tight end Theo Johnson in the fourth round of the 2024 draft.

Theo Johnson, a Penn State tight end, was selected by the New York Giants with their fourth-round pick, 107th overall, in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Johnson's selection comes amidst uncertainty about Darren Waller's future with the Giants, as Waller contemplates retirement following a challenging season.
