The New York Giants quietly held workouts on Friday, hosting four players in East Rutherford, New Jersey, including offensive lineman Yodny Cajuste.
In addition to Cajuste, safety Nico Bolden and running backs Tyler Goodson and Ellis Merriweather were also in town.
The 27-year-old Cajuste was a third-round pick of the New England Patriots in the 2019 NFL draft. He spent four years playing for Bill Belichick before having a cup of coffee with the New York Jets this offseason.
The 6-foot-5, 310-pound Cajuste has appeared in 17 career games with five starts.
Goodson, 22, signed with the Green Bay Packers as a rookie free agent out of Iowa in 2022. He spent the vast majority of his first season on the team’s practice squad before being elevated in late December.
After an impressive training camp was cut short due to a shoulder injury, the Packers released Goodson with an injury settlement earlier this week.
Bolden was signed by the Carolina Panthers as an undrafted free agent and released as a part of final cuts. Similarly, Merriweather was inked to an undrafted free agent contract by the New Orleans Saints before being released in late August as a part of the team’s final cuts.
Merriweather was briefly signed to the Saints’ practice squad but that lasted just 24 hours.
