Giants sign 15 players for training squad

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ — All but one of the Giants’ practice squad players have been to training camp with the Giants, except linebacker Ty Summers, who was released by the Lions on Monday.

He played in 67 regular season games for Green Bay, New Orleans and Jacksonville, including one for the Packers, for whom he also appeared in four postseason games. Like Bolton, Summers played primarily on special teams. Last year with the Saints, he played 303 special teams plays and not a single one on defense.

Other members of the practice squad include wide receivers Isaiah Hodgins and Miles Boykin, tight end Lawrence Cager, tight end/fullback Jakob Johnson, tackles Joshua Miles and Marcellus Johnson, linebackers Tomon Fox and KJ Cloyd, running back Dante Miller, defensive tackle Casey Rogers, defensive backs Raheem Layne and Alex Johnson, center Jimmy Morrissey and kicker Jude McAtamney.

The Giants received an international exemption, so McAtamney, who is from Ireland, does not count towards the 16-player limit on the practice squad.

They have room for two more practice squad players, and safety Gervarrius Owens, who was released, is a candidate to fill one of the spots.
