The New York Giants announced on Tuesday that they have re-signed punter Sean Smith to their practice squad, filling the spot that was vacated when safety Sean Chandler was promoted to the 53-man roster last week.
Smith was previously with the Giants from October 31 through November 5, also then a member of their practice squad. He was used to prepare Giants return men for Dallas Cowboys punter Chris Jones, who is a left-footed punter.
Smith will serve in the same role this week as the Giants prepare for the Miami Dolphins and their left-footed punter, Matt Haack.
Smith was signed by the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted free agent out of Dayton in August. He had previously attended their rookie mini-camp on a tryout basis.
During his college career, Smith was a four-time first-team All-Pioneer Football League selection and set a school record for punting average (45.4 yards) as a senior in 2018.
