The New York Giants are 2-5, short their top wide receiver in Malik Nabers, and hanging on to playoff hope by the thinnest of threads. With the trade deadline less than two weeks away, the expectation was clear: help rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart. Go get a pass-catcher. Add a piece to keep the team competitive.
Instead, the receiver move general manager Joe Schoen made is the opposite. It’s not flashy, it’s not all that exciting, and it doesn’t exactly move the needle. On Monday, the G-Men signed 29-year-old wideout Ray-Ray McCloud to the practice squad — one day after he was cut by the Atlanta Falcons.
