The New York Giants cut their roster down from 80 to 53-men on Saturday afternoon. With the deadline being 4 PM, the Giants waited until the final moments to make the cut’s official, with several surprises along the way.
It is clear that head coach Joe Judge wants to stick with his team from the start, retaining all four linebackers drafted this year. That means TJ Brunson, Cam Brown, Carter Coughlin, and Tae Crowder all made the active roster, which is quite a surprise given they had for seventh-round picks.
With Judge seeing increased confidence when it comes to personnel by ownership, the roster is meant to reflect his hiring.
