Roster moves: Giants shuffle roster to field team for Sunday vs. Buffalo Bills

Injuries forced the New York Giants to make several moves on Saturday to fill out their roster for Sunday night’s game against the Buffalo Bills.

Practice squad elevations

QB Tommy DeVito

With Daniel Jones out, the Giants needed to either elevate DeVito from the practice squad or sign him to the 53-man roster. Elevating him likely shows confidence that Jones’ neck injury is not long-term.

Pugh told media this week that he was unsure how many snaps he could play. He practiced in pads on Wednesday for the first time in almost exactly a year after suffering a torn ACL and did not seem confident he could handle playing a full game of 60 to 70 snaps.
