Giants place John Ross, Elerson Smith on injured reserve

The New York Giants have placed WR John Ross and ED Elerson Smith on IR, and re-signed WR C.J. Board and LS Casey Kreiter.

The New York Giants continued adjusting their 53-man roster on Wednesday night, placing two players on injured reserve and re-signing two others.

Beginning the season on IR are wide receiver John Ross and rookie edge rusher Elerson Smith. Both players are dealing with hamstring injuries.

Replacing Ross and Smith on the active roster are long snapper Casey Kreiter and wide receiver C.J. Board.

Kreiter was waived as a part of final cuts and Board, in a procedural move, had his contract terminated earlier on Wednesday.
