Former Pittsburgh Steelers DL Armon Watts is being signed from the New York Giants practice squad to the Giants’ 53-man roster. Meaning, Watts will have a chance to face his former team in Week 8 when Pittsburgh and New York square off next Monday night.
ESPN reporter Jordan Raanan notes several teams were “eyeing” Watts on the Giants’ practice squad. New York signing him to their 53-man roster blocks another team from poaching him.
The #Giants are going to be signing DT Armon Watts to the active roster, per source. He was signed to their practice squad last week.
