Giants add two, waive one to level roster at 90 players

The New York Giants are now at the league maximum of 90 players after making three roster moves on Thursday.

The club signed rookie free agents tight end Rysen John of Simon Fraser and defensive end Dana Levine of Temple, and waived defensive end Kevin Wilkins.

John, a 6-foot-7, 237 pounder out of Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, played in 25 games and caught 112 passes for 1,675 yards and 19 touchdowns.

John was selected first-team All-Great Northwest Athletic Conference after catching 53 passes for 861 yards and 10 touchdowns. He is named after former NFL star wide receiver Andre Rison (yes, we realize the spelling is different). John is now one of seven tight ends on the Giants’ roster.

Levine is a 6-foot-4, 235 pound prospect that played mainly defensive end in his four years at Temple.

Levine amassed 91 tackles (52 solo and 18.5 tackles for a loss) with 11.0 sacks and four forced fumbles. Last season, he had career highs of 11 tackles for loss and 5.5 sacks in his 32 total tackles, 19 of which were solo.
