Following the Tommy DeVito cut, here are the moves the Giants made to trim their roster to 53:

Released:

• OT Stone Forsythe
• WR Lil’Jordan Humphrey
• DL Jeremiah Ledbetter
• WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette
• RB Jonathan Ward

Waived:

• WR Dalen Cambre
• DL Elijah Chatman
• TE Greg Dulcich
• DL Cory Durden
• OLB Trace Ford
• OLB Tomon Fox
• DL Elijah Garcia
• C Bryan Hudson
• G Jake Kubas
• S Raheem Layne
• K Jude McAtamney
• RB Dante Miller
• C Jimmy Morrissey
• S Makari Paige
• DL Jordon Riley
• WR Juice Wells 
• CB Dee Williams

Waived/injured:

• WR Da’Quan Felton
• CB Tre Hawkins
• TE Jermaine Terry 

Placed on reserve/PUP list:

• OLB Victor Dimukeje
• RB Eric Gray

Placed on IR (return designation):

• OL Joshua Ezeudu

Two years after winning a starting job as a rookie (and forcing Adoree’ Jackson into a brief slot CB sojourn), Hawkins is off the Giants’ roster. He joins Dulcich as notable players waived today. Dulcich came over via waivers from the Broncos midway through last season. The Giants have been light at tight end since Darren Waller‘s retirement, but they now have starter Theo Johnson back after a season-ending injury. Daniel Bellinger, Chris Manhertz and seventh-round rookie Thomas Fidone made the team over Dulcich.

Forsythe came over from the Seahawks on a one-year, $1.34MM deal, doing so after having started 13 games between the 2023 and ’24 seasons. The Giants gave more money (two years, $12MM) to James Hudson to be their swing tackle, while fifth-round rookie Marcus Mbow has been working at tackle as well. Evan Neal is also an option at tackle, though the demoted RT has been working at guard for months.

Ezeudu will count toward the Giants’ in-season injury activation total, reducing that number from eight to seven. The former third-round pick has been out for a few weeks after being carted off the practice field early in camp. The Giants view Ezeudu as likely to return, however. This is the North Carolina product’s contract year.

Teams can officially begin setting their 16-man practice squads starting at 11am CT Wednesday. The Giants have a few candidates from this bunch to stay, with a decent percentage of the above contingent under consideration to stay. Kabas is one, per The Athletic’s Dan Duggan, who adds Miller is another. Paige is viewed as a candidate for New York’s P-squad as well, per KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson. Ward is a vested veteran and can determine his future earlier, but Wilson adds the reserve RB is a taxi squad candidate.
