New York Giants sign CB Art Green to 53-man roster to replace Nick McCloud

Green has been on the practice squad

The New York Giants continued to shuffle their roster on Wednesday. Head coach Brian Daboll announced that cornerback Art Green has been signed from the practice squad to the 53-man roster to replace Nick McCloud, who was released on Tuesday.

Green is a former undrafted free agent who spent most of the 2023 season on the Denver Broncos practice squad. He has been on the Giants’ practice squad since the end of August.

Green, 24, was elevated for one game earlier this season. In Week 3, Green played 11 defensive snaps and was...

Giants injury report: Graham Gano designated to return from IR

The New York Giants returned to the practice field on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for a Week 10 game against the Carolina Panthers at Allianz
Arena in Munich, Germany.

Before heading out into the Spring-like weather, head coach Brian Daboll informed reporters that kicker Graham Gano had his practice window opened and suggested there’s a chance he would play on Sunday.

The news wasn’t nearly as positive for wide receiver Darius Slayton, who remains in concussion protocol and is behind where running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. was a week ago. Daboll said Slayton may not travel to Germany with the...

Why the Giants should have kicked the extra point down 14

Why the Giants should have kicked the extra point down 14

Two-point conversions aren’t what they used to be

Down 24-10 to the Washington Commanders in the fourth quarter on Sunday, the New York Giants scored a touchdown on a great 2-yard run by Daniel Jones with 9:25 left in the fourth quarter to close the gap to 24-16.

The question was then whether the Giants would go for 1 or 2. “Analytics” says to go for 2. It’s counter-intuitive at first, but statistics bear it out. In any case, the Giants failed on the two-point conversion when Jones kept the ball and was tackled short of the goal line. It...

New York Giants release punter Matt Haack

New York Giants release punter Matt Haack

Jamie Gillan apparently ready to resume punting duties

The New York Giants have terminated the contract of veteran punter Matt Haack, a clear sign that regular punter Jamie Gillan is ready to return from a left hamstring injury.

Gillan has missed the last four games, though the Giants did not put him on injured reserve.

Haack, in his eighth NFL season, averaged 47.0 yards per punt over four games for the Giants, with a net average of 39.6 yards per punt. Gillan was averaging 47.8 yards per punt and 42.3 net yards before being injured.

The Giants’ kicking group could...

Giants-Panthers: ‘Things I think’ entering Week 10 — Daniel Jones, trade deadline, more

Giants-Panthers: ‘Things I think’ entering Week 10 — Daniel Jones, trade deadline, more

This has already been an eventful week

The New York Giants face the Carolina Panthers in Week 10 as they play out the string of yet another lost season. Here are some ‘things I think’ as we gear up for the game.

Daniel Jones’ last stand?

Daniel Jones is coming off his best game of the season. His best game, in fact, since 2022. Yet, the reality of where the Giants are in their season and where Jones is in his career, mean that Sunday in Munich, Germany could mark the final start of Jones’ career as Giants quarterback....

Giants release punter Matt Haack

During his first press conference of Week 10, New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll intimated that kicker Graham Gano and punter Jamie Gillan could return as soon as Sunday’s game in Germany.

“I still have to meet with our medical guys, but I think Graham is getting close. How close he is right now, I think we’ll know here in the next couple days,” Daboll said on Monday.

“I think that (Gillan) progressed well. We’ll see here (on Tuesday) or Wednesday where he’s at. I think he has a chance.”

While the jury is still out on Gano, the...

Gimme Him: One player Giants would steal from Panthers

Gimme Him: One player Giants would steal from Panthers

The New York Giants (2-7) will visit the Carolina Panthers (2-7) at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany this Sunday morning.

That, of course, provides those of us here at Giants Wire the opportunity to hypothetically steal from the Panthers’ roster in search of depth and/or talent upgrades for Big Blue for the second time this season.

The issue facing us this week is that Carolina’s roster is quite shallow, much like the Giants’ roster. They are in the early stages of a rebuild and have very little to choose from at the top of the depth chart.

One strongly considered...

Last place Giants sit silent as NFL trade deadline passes

Last place Giants sit silent as NFL trade deadline passes

The New York Giants are 2-7 after nine weeks of the 2024 season, one in which their ownership and front office believed they would be competitive.

Instead, they sit in last place in the NFC East with little hope of winning it after getting swept by division leader Washington this past Sunday.

As the trade deadline passed on Tuesday afternoon, the Giants were neither buyers nor sellers, basically sitting silently with the exception of some minor housekeeping.

The Giants would need the seas to part in order for them to even figure into the wild card hunt. According to NFLGSIS.com,...

New York Giants keep Azeez Ojulari, Darius Slayton as NFL trade deadline passes

Giants will now hope they can re-sign both pending free agents

Azeez Ojulari is staying put. For now. After shopping him prior to Tuesday’s 4 p.m. ET NFL trade deadline, the New York Giants decided not to trade the 24-year-old free-agent-to-be edge defender.

Several edge defenders were traded before the deadline. Preston Smith went from the Green Bay Packers to the Pittsburgh Steelers, Za’Darius Smith from the Cleveland Browns to the Detroit Lions, and Baron Browning from the Denver Broncos to the Arizona Cardinals.

Per Dianna Russini of The Athletic, the Giants wanted a late fourth-round or early fifth-round pick...
