NY Giants Roster Move: Sean Smith

According to Dan Duggan of The Athletic, the NY Giants have signed punter Sean Smith to the practice squad.

The team released linebacker Jake Carlock a few days ago, thus, opening up a roster spot on the practice squad.

Smith spent the summer with the Baltimore Ravens and he happens to be a left-handed punter.

The Giants play the Dallas Cowboys this week and Dallas punter Chris Jones is also a left-handed punter.

So, this move could simply be made for strategic purposes, as a way for returners to get used to Jones’ style.
