Giants Awarded Defensive Tackle Robert Thomas On Waivers

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — The New York Giants have been awarded defensive tackle Robert Thomas on waivers from Carolina.

The Giants announced the move on Sunday, saying they waived defensive tackle Montori Hughes to make room on the 53-man roster.

Thomas played in all four of Carolina’s preseason games and had seven tackles, including two for losses. The Panthers had gotten him on waivers from Miami. He played one game for the Dolphins last year.

Thomas was undrafted coming out of Arkansas in 2014. He has also spent time with the Redskins, Seahawks and Patriots.
