The New York Giants announced a series of roster moves on Friday morning ahead of their final practice of Week 10.
Among those on the move were tight end Eric Tomlinson and offensive lineman Kenny Wiggins, both of whom were waived.
The Giants signed Wiggins earlier this month but listed him as inactive for the team’s Week 9 game against the Washington Football Team. With Will Hernandez (COVID-19) returning and Kevin Zeitler remaining with the team, there was no longer a need for the extra guard.
Tomlinson, meanwhile, originally joined the Giants in September of last year when he was claimed off of waivers from the New York Jets. He was waived several weeks later and spent time with the New England Patriots and Oakland Raiders before re-signing with the Giants in March of this year.
So far this season, Tomlinson has spent time on both the Giants’ active roster and practice squad, which is where he will likely end up if he clears waivers.
Finally, the Giants promoted offensive tackle Kyle Murphy from their practice squad to their active roster.
With the moves, the Giants now have one open spot on their active roster and one open spot on their practice squad.
