Giants roster moves: Ryder Anderson elevated, Tony Jefferson to IR

The New York Giants announced a series of roster moves on Saturday, adjusting their roster before Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens.

The Giants have elevated defensive lineman Ryder Anderson and wide receiver Marcus Johnson from the practice squad. Veteran safety Ton Jefferson has been placed on injured reserve with a foot injury.

Anderson, a 6-foot-6, 276-pound undrafted free agent, earned a practice squad spot after having an excellent summer. Anderson played four seasons at Ole Miss and played at Indiana in 2021 as a grad transfer.

With Kenny Golladay (knee) and Kadarius Toney (hamstring) out of the lineup, Johnson has now been elevated from the practice squad three consecutive weeks.
