The Giants are signing CB Ryan Lewis to their active roster, per source. Lewis had been on the practice squad.
is this SB's roster spot

or was there another opening?
I believe they had to

otherwise he would be subject to waivers, same with Chandler i think

Have they seen enough of Ballentine?
this seemed likely to happen when they convinced him to bail on WFT  
Eric on Li : 9/22/2020 10:20 am : link
he was active off the PS last game and now it's official. He had started games at CB for Graham last year and also spent a year on the Pats PS when Judge was there, and won some kind of 'hard worker in practice' award so he seems more likely to carve out a role than some of the guys they signed over the summer still hanging on for ST purposes.

Not with the new rules. You can take up to 2 guys off the practice squad for the 48 man gameday roster without subjecting them to waivers.

for only 2 games then they are subject to waivers to get back onto practice squad
Can they and would they put Freeman on the practice squad for a week

Until he is ready to contribute? Right now, I would assume Gallman and Smith would make a better contribution than rushing any new face onto the roster.

they should - they desperately need another body at WR. Let him get to 100% and bring back Coleman. He can help on returns too probably.
If his turf toe makes Shep ineffective for 3 weeks or more  
3putt : 9/22/2020 12:09 pm : link
it would be a perfect way to use the new IR rules.
Coleman?  
redwhiteandbigblue : 9/22/2020 12:47 pm : link
Good God I hope they do better. How many chances has this guy been given with no results. And with a new offensive system in place under Garrett, you can't use that as a reason to bring him back. Move on.
