Giants sign CB Stantley Thomas-Oliver to practice squad

The New York Giants are signing former Carolina Panthers cornerback Stantley Thomas-Oliver to their practice squad.

The New York Giants are signing free agent cornerback Stanley Thomas-Oliver, who spent the last three seasons with the Carolina Panthers, much of it on injured reserve and the practice squad.

NFL insider Aaron Wilson was the first to report the signing.

Thomas-Oliver, a former wide receiver, was the 221st selection (7th round) in the 2020 NFL draft by the Panthers out of Florida International.

The 25-year-old Thomas-Oliver has appeared in 25 games for the Panthers with no starts. He was released by the Panthers off their practice squad in September.

In 25 career games, Thomas-Oliver has recorded 17 tackles (12 solo). Most of his snaps have come on special teams.

The Giants also terminated the contract of wide receiver and punt returner, Gunner Olszewski. However, he is expected to be re-signed this week.
