With eight players still on the Reserve/COVID-019 list heading into Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys, the New York Giants made a series of roster moves on Saturday.,
The most important move was removing starting safety Xavier McKinney from the COVID reserve, a boost for a secondary that will be without Adoree’ Jackson, Aaron Robinson and J.R. Reed on Sunday.
The Giants also elevated three players from the practice squad as COVID-19 replacements. They are:
WR Alex Bachman
LB Jaylon Smith
DB Jarren Williams
Smith, the veteran linebacker, just signed to the practice squad on Friday.
