I thought cuts weren't even made yet. I think he will now that RB Tracy got hurt yesterday but pretty sure final rosters haven been announced

Come on guys. Cutdown date still 2 weeks away. Drafted RB suffered a sprained ankle - not season ending.

Roster has been posted-Dante is on the 53; had a great camp; coaches love the fact that he hits the hole without the stutter step that Barkley never lost. Fastest guy on the team and did 28 reps of 225, making him stronger than most LBs. I love his chances of making a splash if he stays healthy. Great story of how he overcame obstacles in life.

I think you are looking at roster projections, not final decisions. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5698784/2024/08/14/new-york-giants-53-roster-projection-tommy-devito/ ("There’s still plenty of time for players to establish themselves as integral members of the New York Giants’ 53-man roster")

Miller looks like a strong candidate to make the team. Remember, though, that the initial 53-man roster is always subject to a lot of shifting the first couple of weeks. For example, teams frequently hold off signing or keeping veterans at first so as not to have their salaries become guaranteed for the entire season, then when they sign the vets, rookies or fringe players can be cut.

Dartmouth has two guys in camps (Lalos for Saints' Kaskey for Rams).

Unfortunately, the projectors do not expect either to make the final rosters. :(

Both Lalos and Kaskey were cut.

That said, the bloggers were very complimentary of both and said that they had strong camps. Unfortunately, it's a numbers game...

Hopefully they get another chance!!

Isn't cut-down-to-53-day usually the last Tuesday of August?
Good luck to Miller. Looks like a sure bet for at least the practice squad but making the 53-man roster would be awesome and seems to be within reach.

My bet is he wont make it through the waiver process to be resigned to Giants practice squad. Best of luck to Dante whereever he ends up

As of August 15 there are 90 players on the NYG roster. Cutdown is yet to come.

With Saquon gone, they will be rotating in a lot of backs. He's got a great chance to get playing time.

Hamstring injury did him in.

Lots of roster changes yet to come
He needs to get through the injury and he should find opportunities as season progresses.

Dante may find himself on the Practice Squad which would keep him close to the team, and rapid promotion to the active roster.

According to BigBlueView (yes, I am a 30 year season ticket holder) the Giants hope to sneak him through waivers so that they can put him on the practice squad. Ed Valentine says that they love him but would prefer to see him get more seasoning since he hasn’t played in two years.
