- The Giants are setting their 16-man practice squad plus one International Player Program exemption spot, expected to be offensive lineman Jarrod Gray.
- Notable practice squad signings include WR/PR Braxton Berrios, QB Jake Haener as the new third quarterback, WR Jalin Hyatt returning surprisingly, and fullback Grant Finley.
- Former Giants linebacker Darius Muasau was claimed off waivers by the New England Patriots, while several waived Giants players like Dalen Cambre are rejoining the practice squad.
- The practice squad allows two players to be elevated on game day up to three times before requiring promotion to the active roster, making it a key developmental tool for the Giants.
