NY Giants 53-man roster projection, Week 2 update: Locks, bubble players, long shots
Key Points:
- The New York Giants' time in West Virginia has resulted in some roster adjustments, with key position battles and player statuses updated after two weeks of practice.
- Notable changes include Grant Finley added as a long shot at running back, Jalin Hyatt moving from long shot to bubble at wide receiver, and Jarrick Bernard-Converse waived/injured at cornerback with David Long and D.J. James added.
- Several players are considered locks for the 53-man roster, including key offensive linemen, linebackers like Jack Kelly who moved from bubble to lock, and defensive backs such as Jevon Holland and Ar’Darius Washington.
- Wide receiver Darnell Mooney, despite some speculation, is strongly expected to make the roster due to consistent strong performances in practice.
- Overall, the Giants currently have 41 locks, 27 bubble players, and 23 long shots on their 91-player roster, including one International Exemption player.
