With the 2025 NFL preseason in their rearview mirror, attention for the New York Giants now turns to constructing their initial 53-man roster. NFL teams have until Tuesday, Aug. 26 at 4 p.m. ET to set their 53-man rosters.
Follow this tracker, which will be constantly updated, as the Giants whittle their roster from the preseason limit of 90 players to 53.
The Giants have reportedly already begun paring down their roster, cutting wide receiver/kick returner Montrell Washington.
A 26-year-old who appeared
in 15 games with two receptions for the Denver Broncos in 2022, Washington was a star in the early portion of training camp. He had three catches for 60 yards, including a 29-yard catch and run in Week 1 of the preseason against the Buffalo Bills. He finished the preseason with seven catches for 105 yards, an average of 15.0 yards per catch. Washington returned two punts for 12 yards (6.0 yards per return) and one kickoff for 25 yards.
The Giants have interesting decisions to make across the roster after a 3-0 preseason. We will have them all for you, so stay right here.
CUTS
OL Jaison Williams [Duggan]
Williams is an undrafted player out of Youngstown State who never really got any traction toward making the roster. Perhaps he could be a practice squad candidate.
WR Montrell Washington [Duggan]
Not surprised to see Washington let go. I was surprised to see his name as the first reported cut.
