New York Giants: Ryan Connelly among cuts to 53-man roster

Cut day is over as the New York Giants cut 28 players reach the NFL regular-season limit of 53 players.

Cut day is the most difficult day of the year for players and coaches. Guys who battled all summer have their hopes of making the roster dashed in an instance.

The most surprising cut the Giants made on Saturday was second-year linebacker Ryan Connelly. The Wisconsin product appeared in the first four games of last season and had 20 tackles, two interceptions, and a sack. His season came to an abrupt end in Week 4 when he tore his ACL.
