The New York Giants have re-signed tight end Jake Hausmann to their practice squad, almost one week to the day after his contract had been terminated.

The 24-year-old Hausmann was signed by the Detroit Lions as an undrafted rookie out of Ohio State back in April. He was waived by the team on August 6 and claimed by the Giants a day later.

Hausmann was released as a part of final cuts but immediately signed to the Giants’ practice squad where he had remained until his brief release last week. He has yet to be elevated or appear in an NFL regular-season game.

Meanwhile, as part of a procedural move, the Giants also returned defensive lineman David Moa and linebacker Benardrick McKinney to their practice squad. Both players had been elevated for the team’s Week 7 game, active and saw some playing time.

Expect McKinney to be signed to the 53-man roster as early as this week.
