EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Giants are cutting Kelvin Benjamin before he even got in a full-team training camp practice, it was announced Wednesday.
The converted wide receiver was trying to make a comeback as a tight end. He was signed by the Giants after a tryout back in May at rookie minicamp.
The 30-year-old Benjamin, who last played in the NFL with the Kansas City Chiefs during the 2018 season, looked as if he would be receiving an opportunity to resuscitate his career this summer.
He was on the field warming up for the team's first practice of training camp Wednesday when he was approached by coach Joe Judge and general manager Dave Gettleman.
