The Giants have kicked off their journey to a 53-man roster, starting with a series of roster moves announced on a bustling Sunday afternoon. Buckle up, Giants fans, because this rollercoaster ride just got real!
NFC East’s Tough Decisions Begin
Our beloved Giants have made some tough calls, parting ways with 10 players in their **first wave** of moves. It’s like peeling off a bandage—painful but necessary.
Marcus McKethan Among the Departures
Offensive lineman Marcus McKethan, a 2022 fifth-round pick, is among this initial group. McKethan, who stepped into the breach and started five games for Big Blue last season, found himself relegated to third-team duties in camp after the Giants bulked up their offensive line this offseason. Tough break, champ—a classic case of being caught between a rock and a hard place!
But that’s not all—let’s dive into **the Giants’ farewell list**:
- Kyler Baugh – Defensive Tackle
- Breon Borders – Cornerback
- Christian Holmes – Cornerback
- Clayton Isbell – Safety
- John Jiles – Wide Receiver
- Joshua Kelley – Running Back
- Trey Kiser – Linebacker
- Lorenzo Lingard – Running Back
- Ayir Asante – Wide Receiver
In a sea of **talent and potential,** these players found themselves on the outside looking in as the Giants tighten up their roster.
The clock is ticking fast, with all 32 teams having to whittle down their squads to the initial **53-man roster** by Tuesday afternoon. Trust me, it’s a nail-biter!
Last-Minute Additions to the Waiver List
UPDATE 3:28 p.m. ET: Just when we thought the waves had settled, the Giants announced they have also waived **defensive tackle Timmy Horne** and **defensive back Jonathan Sutherland** with injury designations. It’s like the final twist in a gripping novel—didn’t see that coming, did you?
