Giants take flier on WR who sought trade on ‘Hard Knocks’

Maybe the fourth time is the charm for Corey Coleman.

Coleman’s strange 2018 season took another turn Thursday, as the former first-round pick was put on the Giants’ active roster for Sunday’s game against the Redskins.

The 15th-overall pick in the 2016 draft was traded by Cleveland to Buffalo in August for just a 2020 seventh-rounder. Coleman was quickly cut by the Bills and then landed in New England last month, but he was there less than a week before Josh Gordon’s arrival led to his placement on the Patriots’ practice squad.

New England released Coleman before the Giants picked him up last week and put him on their practice squad.
