Giants Sign 15 Undrafted Players

April 27th, 2020 at 1:21pm CST by Zachary Links

The Giants have agreed to sign 15 undrafted free agents, per a club announcement. They had 80 players on the roster heading into Monday morning, so five players will have to be cut in order to make room for the newcomers. Here’s the full rundown:

Christian Angulo, DB (Hampton)
Case Cookus, QB (Northern Arizona)
Derrick Dillon, WR (LSU)
Malcolm Elmore, DB (Central Methodist)
Tyler Haycraft, OL (Louisville)
Rysen John, WR (Simon Fraser University)
Niko Lalos, OLB (Dartmouth)
Jaquarius Landrews, DB (Mississippi State)
Javon Leake, RB (Maryland)
Dana Levine, OLB (Temple)
Austin Mack, WR (Ohio State)
Kyle Markway, TE (South Carolina)
Kyle Murphy, OL (Rhode Island)
Dominique Ross, OLB (North Carolina)
Binjimen Victor, WR (Ohio State)

Dillon’s deal includes a $40K guarantee, as Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle tweets. That’s an indication that other clubs were keen on the LSU product. Last year, Dillon finished out with 15 catches for 202 yards and two touchdowns in Joe Burrow‘s offense.

Cookus, a quarterback out of Northern Arizona, likely would have heard his name called over the weekend if not for a pair of season-ending shoulder injuries in college. In his final season with the Lumberjacks, Cookus threw for nearly 4,100 yards and 31 touchdowns. Still, making the Giants’ 53-man roster cut will be tough as they already have Colt McCoy and Alex Tanney slotted behind starter Daniel Jones.
