EAST RUTHERFORD — And then there were three.

The Giants came to an injury settlement with defensive back Mykkele Thompson on Tuesday's day off for a break in their preparations for Sunday's season opener against the Cowboys and waived him off their injured reserve list, about a month after he was initially waived/injured with a calf injury.

With Thompson’s departure, three of the Giants’ six-man 2015 NFL Draft class are no longer with the organization.

The Giants waived that year’s third-round pick, Owa Odighizuwa, on Aug. xx after the defensive end’s tumultuous offseason was capped with a four-game suspension for violating the league’s performance enhancing substance policy.
