Giants roster moves: Gunner Olszewski to injured reserve

The New York Giants, in a move that had been anticipated for several days, on Saturday placed wide receiver/kick returner Gunner Olszewski on injured reserve.

Olszewski suffered a groin injury in pre-game warmups before last week’s season-opening gam against the Minnesota Vikings. Head coach Brian Daboll said during the week that Olszewski would be sidelined for “weeks.” Thus, placing him on IR was anticipated.

The Giants signed wide receiver/returner Ihmir Smith-Marsette during the week to handle punt returns.

The Giants on Saturday also elevated two players from the practice squad for Sunday’s game against the Washington Commanders — linebackers Tomon Fox and Ty Summers.
