Giants Make Roster Moves Ahead of Week 17 Game at Chicago

The Giants announced that safety Julian Love, a Chicago native who had been on the reserve/COVI-19 list, was activated and will be available to play Sunday against the Bears.

New York also designated receiver Alex Bachman and defensive tackle Woodrow Hamilton as their two standard practice squad replacements. And they activated receiver Pharoh Cooper, offensive tackle Derrick Kelly, defensive tackle David Moa, and receiver David Sills V as COVID-19 replacements.

The Giants are thin at receiver, with John Ross, Collin Johnson, and Kadarius Toney declared out due to injury and Darius Slayton on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Their receivers will include Kenny Golladay, Cooper, and Sills with the moves made.

Welcome to 2022! It might be a new year, but we still have a couple more weeks to go in the current season. So let's see what's on everyone's minds as we kick off the new year with a new mailbag.

Dan Reeves, who was voted AP NFL Coach of the Year in his first season with the Giants, passed away after battling a long illness.

Kenny Golladay's first season as a Giant hasn't gone according to plan, but with two games left, he's hoping to score his first touchdown with his new team.

The Giants offensive line has been a mess this year, but in Andrew Thomas, the team has a cornerstone piece they can build a foundation with.

Giants offensive line coach Rob Sale hasn't been one to mince words this season when it comes to members of the Giants offensive line. And in just a few words, Sale painted an unflattering picture of Isaiah Wilson.

The Giants had a strong group of receivers on paper, but they all shared one unfortunate thing in common that undermined their productivity.

The Giants are also thin at offensive tackle as Korey Cunningham is on the reserve/COVID-19 list. That said, the Giants did not elevate Isaiah Wilson to the 53-man roster after the offensive lineman missed practice this week due to illness.

The Giants are also awaiting word on whether center Billy Price, who has been tending to a personal matter, will be available Sunday. Head coach Joe Judge said that Price spent the past week with his wife and hadn't partaken in the meetings.

While the door has been left open for Price this week, it's hard to envision the center playing Sunday if he's been absent from the meetings and if he is still tending to his wife's needs.
