The New York Giants filled their remaining opening on the 53-man roster by signing defensive back Tony Jefferson from their practice squad ahead of Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers n London.
Jefferson, a nine-year veteran, was elevated from the practice for the season's first two games. The veteran, familiar with defensive coordinator Wink Martindale's defense from their time in Baltimore, has one tackle in 23 defensive snaps. Jefferson takes the roster spot that opened earlier in the week when the Giants placed cornerback Aaron Robinson on IR with a knee injury.
The Giants also elevated quarterback Davis Webb and wide receiver Marcus Johnson from their practice squad for Sunday’s game.
