Giants Waive Tight End Cunningham, Safety Kinne

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (CBSNewYork)The Giants have waived tight end Jerome Cunningham and safety G.J. Kinne, the team announced Thursday.

The moves come days after the Giants added a tight end — South Carolina’s Jerell Adams — and a safety — Boise State’s Darian Thompson — in the draft.

Cunningham was signed as a rookie free agent out of Southern Connecticut in 2014 and spent most of that season on the practice squad. Last season, he split time between the practice squad and the active roster. He played in nine games, starting three, and had eight receptions for 59 yards.
