Here is how the Giants moved down to the 53-man limit today: Released: WR Miles Boykin TE Lawrence Cager CB Tre Herndon (story) WR Isaiah Hodgins DB Darnay Holmes (story) FB Jakob Johnson CB David Long T Joshua Miles WR Allen Robinson (story) Waived: LB Darrian Beavers LB K.J. Cloyd LB Tomon Fox DB Alex […]
Hodgins was a contributor the last two seasons, totaling 54 receptions for 581 yards and seven touchdowns for the Giants. However, the 25-year-old found himself the odd man out playing behind a deeper receiver group. The Giants also waived/released LB Darrian Beavers, WR Miles Boykin, TE Lawrence Cager, LB K.J. Cloyd, OLB Tomon Fox, DB Mario Goodrich, CB Tre Herndon, CB Darnay Holmes, S Alex Johnson, FB Jakob Johnson, OL Marcellus Johnson, S Raheem Layne, CB David Long Jr., OL Jalen Mayfield, K Jude McAtamney, OT Josh Miles, RB Dante Miller, C Jimmy Morrisey, OLB Ovie Oghoufo, WR Allen Robinson, DL Casey Rogers, and TE Jack Stoll.
Stoll missed time during training camp with a brain injury and never made an impact upon his return, according to New York beat writers. The former Eagles tight end is likely to land with another team before Week 1. The Giants tight end depth chart includes Daniel Bellinger, Theo Johnson, and Lawrence Cager.
