Giants cut TE Kyle Rudolph to clear cap space

It’s that time of year again.

The Giants, who are in salary cap hell, have begun making players cap casualties in order to clear some money off the books.

The first player up: veteran tight end Kyle Rudolph.

.@Giants Fans thanks for taking me and my family in this past year! Certainly not the year any of us expected, but a year we will never forget.. We're appreciative of the Mara and Tisch Families for giving us the opportunity to be a Giant. pic.twitter.com/HSZzGGTXRI

Former Giants general manager Dave Gettleman signed Rudolph to a two-year, $12 million deal last offseason.
