EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Wide receiver Cole Beasley is being released off the New York Giants practice squad as per his wishes, sources told ESPN. The veteran asked for his release because he did not see an opportunity arising to make the active roster.
Beasley began the season on injured reserve because of a quad injury suffered during training camp. But he has been healthy and practicing well for several weeks.
The 34-year-old receiver still intends to play.
The Giants (1-5) host the Washington Commanders on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.
