The Giants made a “big” move on Tuesday, re-signing 6-foot-8 defensive end Devin Taylor.
The five-year veteran who was with the Giants in the preseason has 15 career sacks and was a starter for the Lions in 2016. The Giants brought him back to take the roster spot of rookie Nordly “Cap” Capi, who was placed on injured reserve with a hamstring. Capi had two special teams tackles for the Giants this season.
Taylor adds another experienced player to the Giants’ defensive end rotation that now includes Jason Pierre-Paul, Kerry Wynn and rookie Avery Moss along with Olivier Vernon, who has missed three games with an ankle injury.
