Giants cut QB Josh Freeman

By WTOP Staff

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The New York Giants released quarterback Josh Freeman on Friday, five weeks after signing him.

Freeman’s stock has plummeted since the beginning of last season, when he was Tampa Bay’s starting quarterback. He was benched and then cut by the Buccaneers, signed with Minnesota and started one game. That was in a lopsided loss to the Giants.

New York signed him as its 15th veteran free agent in the offseason, adding Freeman to the roster in part because starting quarterback Eli Manning and backup Curtis Painter had undergone surgery.

But Manning was back at practice this week.

The Giants also were awarded offensive lineman Rogers Gaines off waivers from the Bears.
