Most of the headlines concerning the Giants came this summer as the team came to a long-term deal with quarterback Daniel Jones and a short-term solution to satisfy running back Saquon Barkley. Still, the team made the necessary moves today to get towards a 53-man roster. Here are the cuts from today:

Waived:

• DT Ryder Anderson
• DE Habakkuk Baldonado
• LB Darrian Beavers
• S Alex Cook
• RB Jashaun Corbin
• QB Tommy DeVito
• LB Tomon Fox
• CB Gemon Green
• LB Dyontae Johnson
• TE Ryan Jones
• LS Cameron Lyons
• T Tyre Phillips
• WR Kalil Pimpleton
• DT Kobe Smith
• LB Ray Wilborn

Released:

• C Sean Harlow
• WR David Sills
• LB Oshane Ximines

Ximines is potentially the biggest name here. A former third-round pick in 2019, Ximines has failed to live up to his draft stock, only starting nine games during the first four years of his career. He was re-signed on a cheap, one-year deal at the start of free agency, but ultimately, it seems like New York decided to move on.

The sixth-round rookie draft pick Beavers had a strong chance not only at a roster spot but at a starting spot. A torn ACL in the preseason ended any hopes of a starting role as a rookie for Beavers.

On offense, Phillips was a top contender for the swing tackle job after filling in for Evan Neal in four starts at right tackle last year. It appears he lost out on the role to Matt Peart.

Lastly, the undrafted rookie quarterback DeVito did his best over the preseason to earn a roster spot, drawing praise from many of his coaches. Ultimately, he proved unable to convince the Giants to keep a third passer behind Jones and Tyrod Taylor.
