Giants Waive OLB Tuzar Skipper
Redemption, thy name is Kevin Colbert. The New York Giants have waived LB Tuzar Skipper, meaning any team is eligible to claim him over the next 24 hours. Skipper lost out on his roster spot when the Giants signed Deone Bucannon.

Skipper has been a fan favorite and point of frustration since the Giants claimed him right before Week One. Pittsburgh released him to get WR Johnny Holton on the 53 man roster. Though they hoped to re-sign Skipper to the practice squad, his stellar preseason performance didn’t go unnoticed and New York scooped him up.
