The New York Giants made a series of roster moves and waiver claims on Wednesday, but more moves are expected to come on Thursday as injuries mount.
Prior to Wednesday’s practice, the team held their latest round of workouts with two players in attendance. They were tight end Tanner Hudson and defensive back Nasir Greer.
Of the two, Hudson took his physical and was signed to a contract. The Giants made the transaction official on Thursday morning.
Hudson, 27, was originally signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an undrafted rookie out of Southern Arkansas following the 2018 NFL draft. He remained with the Bucs through the 2020 season before spending last season with the San Francisco 49ers.
In 22 career games (one start), Hudson has caught five passes for 67 yards. He earned a 60.0 Pro Football Focus grade in 2020.
Greer signed with the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted rookie free agent back in April and was released this past Tuesday as a part of league-wide cuts.
In order to make room for Hudson on their roster, the Giants waived offensive lineman Chris Owens.
