The New York Giants announced on Thursday that running back Taquan Mizzell, who had previously been placed on injury reserve with a hamstring issue, has been waived.
Mizzell (5-foot-10, 185 pounds) entered the NFL in 2017, signing with the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted rookie. After a cup of coffee in Baltimore, he went on to play for the Chicago Bears (2017-2018) and New Orleans Saints (2019-2020).
The Giants signed Mizzell to their practice squad last November and then to a reserve/futures contract in early January.
In 12 games (one start), Mizzell has gained 200 all purpose yards and scored one touchdown. He has also recorded three special teams tackles.
