Louis Nix III signing: Defensive tackle back with Giants

The strange merry-go-round that is the New York Giants' roster continues to spin. Coach Tom Coughlin said Wednesday that "we will" sign a defensive tackle after Louis Nix III flunked his physical and was released on Tuesday. Apparently, Nix was the defensive tackle Coughlin was referring to.

Don't look at me. I'm just the messenger here. I don't get it, either. NJ.com's James Kratch tweeted that whatever caused Nix to fail his physical "was all straightened out."

Nix has had knee issues in the past and spent last season on Injured Reserve with the Houston Texans.
