New York Giants sign WR Marcus Johnson to 53-man roster

The New York Giants are filling one of the two vacancies on their 53-man roster by signing wide receiver Marcus Johnson off their practice squad.

Dan Duggan of the Athletic was first with the news on Twitter. The Giants have now made that move official.

Johnson, 28, has been elevated from the practice squad in each of the past three games. He has five receptions for 60 yards, 12.0 yards per catch. Johnson has played 88 snaps, more than 40 in each of the past two games.

A 6-foot-1, 207-pounder, Johnson is in his sixth NFL season.
