Overview
- The Giants waived linebacker Cam Jones and defensive tackle C.J. Ravenell on Saturday, creating two openings on the 90-man roster just ahead of training camp.
- Cam Jones signed a one-year deal in March and will still receive guaranteed money that creates a dead‑money charge for the team, according to contract reporting.
- C.J. Ravenell had been claimed off waivers in early July from the Tennessee Titans and was released with a non‑football‑injury designation after only a short time with the club.
- Those cuts widen an already thin interior defensive tackle group after the Dexter Lawrence trade and recent PUP placements for Roy Robertson‑Harris and Sam Roberts, and the team is expected to add at least one lineman before the first practice.
- Jones’s release underscores how injuries and special‑teams role battles shape late July roster trimming and how camp will be used to sort the bottom of the roster under new head coach John Harbaugh.
