Charles James II has been released. ‪#‎nyg‬ ‪#‎giants‬ ‪#‎NFL‬
He shares the following message: "Wanna thank the New York Giants for giving me the opportunity to start my career in the National Football League. Things happen in life for a reason I can leave this place with a smile because I know I gave it everything I had everyday. Shocked? Hell yes! But I guess that's how the business goes. Gonna miss my guys DRC, Vic Cruz, Prince and a lot more we had some good times but the one person I'll miss the most is my big brother Antrel @antrelrolle you showed me a lot taught me a lot and I looked up to you thanks for everything. I'd be lying if I say this didn't motivate me haha looks like the Charles James underdog story continues! GOD is good man! ‪#‎ManOfFaith‬ ‪#‎TheJourney‬"

I believe he is suspended for 4 games and has gotten repeatedly torched all pre season. It's been long enough, would take James over him in a heartbeat. Although, neither are anything but extreme backup/ST's material

Hosley's a nickel, James plays outside.
Now they've got the talent where they COULD cut Hosley, but it would go against their normal MO.
Good news for Giants is Hosley doesn't count as a roster spot yet. Â
"@Patricia_Traina: TE Jerome Cunningham has been cut by the Giants per a league source. They might be looking to add him to the practice squad ..." I would think he is definitely ticketed there. Too raw to be picked up elsewhere but holding promise with some development.
regarding James. He said due to injuries with OL, the Giants had to make a decision on James sooner than they wanted to. Had to keep more OL for Thursday.

The bad news for the Giants is he'll be eligible to play after 4 games...
Not entirely true. He does count as part of the 53 initially. After the rest of the players are waived then they can add a 54th.
I thought the way it works (if they don't flat out cut Hosley) is that the Giants name their 53 players PLUS get a roster exemption for which they can use on the suspended Hosley.
The suspended list is different then putting someone on short term IR. In order to go onto short term IR you have to be one of the 53. Regular IR can occur anytime and the Suspended list doesn't count as he is automatically suspended and won't be on the roster. They get you at the end of the suspension not before because you have to either cut him or free up a roster spot.

He just tried out at CB for Giants in the wrong year.
I dont think he counts
I believe he is suspended for 4 games and has gotten repeatedly torched all pre season. It's been long enough, would take James over him in a heartbeat. Although, neither are anything but extreme backup/ST's material

too early to cut bait on him.

X-Man, we hardly knew 'ya.
They could keep two QBs, three TEs, to create extra roster spots. Going to be interesting.
Are the Giants looking to corner the market on career 3rd string Tight Ends?
I would be shocked if the Giants don't go with 2 QBs and 3 TEs on the final 53.

They typically don't, thus, the could. It makes the most sense to me this year, but ...
Then again, what more would they need to see?

I posted only 15 min ago that I hoped he would make it

likely makes team now.
If they carry6
Plus some of these guys they will want back on the PS. They are having conversations with them.
Fred but he can still play the final preseason game. Maybe the Giants want one more look to see if he is worth keeping on the Suspended list

Those bastards cut me? After I've given them 50 of the best years of my life.
Darn it. I hope he ends up on the practice squad.
