They signed cornerback Rashad Barksdale, a former University at Albany standout, off their practice squad and signed linebacker Rich Scanlon.


To make room on the roster, the Giants put cornerback Sam Madison on injured reserve and waived linebacker Edmond Miles. Madison broke his right ankle in the third quarter at Minnesota.

Unlikely to see much PT, except maybe in Dime packages. Still, gotta love the Giants taking a man from their summer hosts xthumbsupx

Further FCS connection, WR Paul Raymond of Brown signed to the Practice Squad as well for the G-Men. Raymond and Zak DeOssie make for a pair of Bears with the Giants xthumbsupx
