Giants Practice Squad and Waiver Wire Tracker

With cuts to 53 complete, New York still has to navigate the waiver wire and assemble its practice squad — and there's no guarantee the players they want will still be available.

Trimming the 90-man roster to 53 was the “easy” part for the New York Giants—if you want to call it that.

Now comes the tricky part: assembling the 16-man practice squad—17 if a team has an International Pathway Program (IPP) player on its roster—while also waiting to see which waiver wire claims were successful.  

Why is it tricky? Because there are no guarantees that the players the Giants want will pass through waivers or, for that matter, accept an offer to return to the practice squad.

So as we wait for news to trickle in, here is our projected list of players we believe will land with the Giants once the dust settles:

1. FB Grant Finley
2. RB Damon Bankston  
3. DT Zacch Pickens  
4. IOL Jake Kubas  
5. WR Dalen Cambre
6. QB Jake Haener  
7. OLB Caleb Murphy
8. OT Ryan Schernecke
9. S Raheem Layne
10. DB Beau Brade
11. OT Jarrod Gray (IPP exemption)

Keep it here as we track the various practice squad reports and the roster-churning activity expected today.

Rumors/Reports

WR Dalen Cambre, who finished as the Giants' leading receiver in yards and who was a standout on special teams, is expected to clear waivers and be added to the practice squad (Art Stapleton).
