NOVEMBER 27, 2019 NEW YORK GIANTS INJURY REPORT…
Wide receiver Golden Tate (concussion), tight end Evan Engram (foot), tight end Rhett Ellison (concussion), and safety Jabrill Peppers (back) did not practice on Wednesday.

Linebacker Kareem Martin, who has been on Injured Reserve since September 11th with a knee injury that he suffered in the season opener, has been designated for return from Injured Reserve by the Giants. He is now eligible to return to the 53-man roster in three weeks.

NEW YORK GIANTS ROSTER MOVES…
The New York Giants have waived wide receiver Bennie Fowler and signed wide receiver Da’Mari Scott from the team’s Practice Squad. The Giants also re-signed wide receiver Reggie White, Jr. to the Practice Squad.

Fowler originally signed as an undrafted rookie free agent with the Denver Broncos after the 2014 NFL Draft. He has spent time with the Broncos (2014-2017), Chicago Bears (2018), and New England Patriots (2018). After signing late with the Giants in October 2018, Fowler surprisingly played in 10 games in 2018 with five starts, finishing the year with 16 catches for 199 yards and one touchdown. Fowler made the 53-man roster again in 2019. The Giants cut him in early October and re-signed him two weeks later. This year, Fowler has played in eight games with two starts for the Giants, catching 23 passes for 193  yards.

The 6’0”, 205-pound Scott was originally signed by the Cleveland Browns as an undrafted rookie free agent after the 2018 NFL Draft. The Browns waived him in December 2018 and he was then signed by the Bills. The Giants claimed Scott off of waivers from the Buffalo Bills in July 2019, waived him in August, and re-signed him to the Practice Squad in October 2019.

The Giants originally signed White as an undrafted rookie free agent after the 2019 NFL Draft. The team signed him to the Practice Squad in September but terminated his contract two weeks ago.
