There is often a vibe when it comes to an impending free agent, where negotiations might lead and where he might end up.

“It seems he’ll stay,’’ you might say. Or: “I can definitely see him signing elsewhere.’’

Well, “it seems he’ll stay’’ was the feeling around safety Julian Love and his future with the Giants. The player liked the team, and the team liked the player.

Love was one of the most popular and personable individuals at the team facility. His teammates voted him in as one of the captains. The beat writers who cover the team selected Love as the winner of the George Young/Ernie Accorsi Good Guy Award for 2022 for his availability and professionalism in dealing with the media.
