In what is likely a sign that they expect Tyrod Taylor to be ready to be in uniform next Monday night against the Green Bay Packers, the New York Giants have waived veteran backup quarterback Matt Barkley.
Taylor, on injured reserve since suffering a rib injury while scrambling during a Week 8 loss to the New York Jets, had his 21-day practice window opened on Monday. The Giants have 21 days to decide where to activate the veteran quarterback or leave him on IR for the remainder of the season.
Barkley was signed to the practice squad on Oct.
