The Giants this morning pared 15 players from their roster to reach the NFL’s roster limit of 75 players.

 

Two veterans who had offseason knee surgery and have yet to practice this summer, defensive tackle

Chris Cantyicon-article-link.gif and tight end Travis Beckumicon-article-link.gif, were placed on the reserve/physically unable to perform list. They will miss at least the first six games of the season.

 

Offensive lineman Brandon Mosleyicon-article-link.gif, the second of the Giants’ two fourth-round draft choices this year, was placed on season-ending injured reserve with an ankle injury.

 

The Giants terminated the contract of five-year veteran cornerback Antwaun Moldenicon-article-link.gif, whom they signed on April 16. Molden played for New England last year.

 

The team also waived 11 players, including three with NFL experience: tight end Ryan Purvisicon-article-link.gif, defensive tackle Carlton Powellicon-article-link.gif and defensive back Chris Hortonicon-article-link.gif. Also waived were wide receivers Julian Talleyicon-article-link.gif and Brandon Collinsicon-article-link.gif, tight end Christian Hopkinsicon-article-link.gif, defensive backs Brandon Bingicon-article-link.gif and Jojo Nicolas, running back Joe Martinekicon-article-link.gif, tackle Joel Reindersicon-article-link.gif and defensive tackle Oren Wilsonicon-article-link.gif.

 

According to NFL rules, the earliest Canty and Beckum can be activated is the day after the sixth regular season weekend (October 16). From October 16 up until the day after the ninth regular season weekend (November 6), players on reserve/PUP may begin a 21-day practice period before a decision has to be made whether to activate, terminate, or keep them on the reserve/PUP list.

 

The Giants and the rest of the NFL must reach the regular-season roster limit of 53 players by 9 p.m. Friday. The Giants host New England in their final preseason game Wednesday and will face Dallas in the regular season opener on September 5.

I'm surprised they didn't just put Mosley on IR but I guess they thought he wasn't worth his salary. I wonder how much of his 4 year/$2.4 mil contract is guaranteed?
