Report: Giants will sign LB Omari Cobb to practice squad

The New York Giants are once again making several changes to their practice squad and it will begin with the signing of linebacker Omari Cobb.

Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News was the first to report that pending transaction.

The 24-year-old Cobb signed with the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent out or Marshall in 2020. He spent most of the past two seasons on their practice squad but did appear in one game last season, recording one tackle on 10 defensive snaps (also took one special teams snap).

The Chiefs released Cobb earlier this month.

With the upcoming addition of the 6-foot-4, 223-pound Cobb, the Giants had to make some additional moves.

Per the NFL’s transaction wire, New York also terminated the contracts of wide receiver Matt Cole, defensive tackle Willie Henry and offensive lineman Foster Sarell.

The Giants now have two open spots remaining on the practice squad.
