Thursday Afternoon Update: Comings and Goings – Update
Here’s a quick update of the roster moves the Giants have made the past 24 hours:
Who’s out….
DT Shaun Rogers (blood clot in leg) is still on the roster but is headed for IR
DT Martin Parker (back) was waived/injured ans then placed on IR
Coughlin: “I feel good except for the fact that at the tackle position, where we thought we were deep, we’re all of a sudden not. I can’t feel very good about that when I really did think we had a lot of people who could play and we would be good in that spot. Obviously not great news. It seems like the harder you feel and you push to get people back out, the longer it takes. We’re going to have to wait and see.”
LB Clint Sintim (knee) was waived/injured
Coughlin: ”We found ourselves in need of players at a certain position. We felt that was probably the best way to go for both, for Clint as well. He’s probably quite a ways away.”
DE Justin Trattou (ankle/heel) was waived injured
Coughlin: “We feel it would be wonderful to just keep everybody and be able to have a place for everybody. Justin did a nice job for us last year, as a rookie, just coming in and making the team and being very good on special teams and giving us a great look. In this case, the doctors tell us he’s quite a ways away and we felt like this was something we needed to do to bolster that one spot.”
Who’s in….
DT Oren Wilson – signed as a free agent
DT Bobby Skinner – signed as a free agent. then released when Marcus Thomas was signed later in the day
DB Laron Scott – signed as free agent
Coughlin: “He obviously had the good return in pre-season. He’ll be one of the numbers probably right off the bat on kickoff return.”
