The first round of cuts took place on Tuesday, with NFL teams reaching the current 85-player limit. The New York Giants said goodbye to tight end Jeremiah Hall, guard Josh Rivas, defensive back Gavin Heslop, DB Jarrod Wilson, DB Michael Jacquet, and wide receiver Austin Proehl.
GM Joe Schoen did not take long to add a player of interest; former 2021 UDFA out of USC, Olaijah Griffin, was claimed off waivers after Schoen’s previous employer - the Buffalo Bills - released him.
Griffin is the son of famous rapper Warren G. I love the rolling of the dice on a player like Griffin, who is a former five-star recruit with upside.
