![]() ![]() Could return on the practice squad.Īlex Bachman, WR: Bachman was fighting a numbers' game at the position, but there's no question he has stepped up his game in this new offensive system. Board, WR/KR: Board is a capable return man, but likely lost out on the competition with Richie James and David Sills. Working from the bottom of the depth chart for a new coaching staff did not yield as many opportunities.Ĭ.J. Vegas with DC Patrick Graham?ĭavid Moa, DL: Moa's a grinder who became a practice squad mainstay last summer. Unfortunate, yes, because he is a developing player, but not necessarily a surprise based on what we've seen this summer. Quincy Roche, OLB: Was battling from the bottom of the rep chart all summer. Earned respect of coaches and teammates this summer. Have to imagine Giants want him back for practice squad with chance to continue his development. Ryder Anderson, DL: An intriguing young player. Would be very surprised if he's not back in some capacity. Really impressed with how he ran this offense this summer.

He's another candidate for the practice squad.ĭavis Webb, QB: Webb could be back on PS. He caught a touchdown in the preseason finale, but has developing to do. He should land on the practice squad.Īustin Allen, TE: Even with the lack of depth at the position, Allen is still raw. Zyon Gilbert, CB: The undrafted rookie has flashed on the boundary and has put in good work as a gunner on special teams. He could wind up back on the 53, or on the practice squad. Trenton Thompson, DB: Undrafted rookie produced highlight plays and pushed for a spot. Nate Meadors, DB: Logged plenty of snaps over the last two preseason games, but even at a thin position, he'll have to return on the practice squad unless something changes. Roy Mbaeteka, OL: Great story and Mbaeteka made strides in his development just by playing in an organized game. His return could depend on whether Giants are able to add replacements from outside the organization. Will Holden, OL: He's gotten a lot of time this summer, filling in at several spots. We'll see if he comes back on the practice squad. Harrison Hand, DB: Claimed from the Vikings last week, Hand did not have enough time to close the gap. Jalyn Holmes, DE: A surprise release given how well Holmes played this summer, especially near the tail end of camp and in the preseason finale before suffering a concussion. ![]() Khalil Dorsey, DB: The former Raven never found his footing this summer despite there being opportunities in the secondary.

Whether they were capable enough to make it or not, it’s still tough. At this time, they’re all tough regardless - it’s a tough decision anytime you’re releasing a player. "There will be a lot of meetings," Daboll said. This is the first time Daboll and Schoen will make the calls on the roster. The roster had to be pared to 53 by Tuesday at 4 p.m., and after seven moves Monday, plus Tuesday's action, the Giants are there.
