The New York Giants announced Tuesday that they’ve signed LB Deontae Skinner off the Raiders’ practice squad and placed LB Nigel Harris on injured reserve.
The Giants also waived CB Tim Scott and DE Jordan Williams to make room for Skinner and CB Janoris Jenkins, who has been reinstated from suspension (NFLTR).
Skinner, 26, signed on with the Patriots as an undrafted free agent out of Mississippi State. He was on and off of the team’s practice squad and active roster for much of the 2014 season before New England brought him back on a future/reserve deal for the 2015 season.
