Here is the updated list of cap numbers for all Giants players on the team now, in order of most cap space to least cap space

Two days ago on Wednesday, September 4th, the Giants made some changes to their roster. They are as follows:
  • They placed Andre Brown on Temporary Injured Reserve (the Reserve/Designated to Return list)
  • This created an opening in the 53-man roster, which was filled by promoting DE Adewale Ojomo from their Practice Squad.
    • The Vacancy in the 8-man Practice Squad was filled by OT Steven Baker (see below).

Here is the list of the players on the Giants' 53-man roster, along with their corresponding cap numbers for 2013 in order from largest cap number to smallest cap number. These numbers are based on the figures from Jason Fitzgerald's Giants Salary Cap page from overthecap.com (click below to see):

Here is the list of current Practice Squad players (last changed on Wed., Sept. 4, 2013):














Jason Fitzgerald has the Giants listed as being $469,445 under the cap now as a result of the new regular season Salary Cap rules that began to be in effect as of yesterday at midnight NY time. The amount of cap room that the Giants now have should be enough for them to navigate their way through the regular season.

If they need more (which I doubt they will now after having had time to analyze their situation), they'll turn to Chris Snee & Steve Weatherford again. I suggest people bookmark the link below from Jason's site now that we are in the regular season, and go there frequently to check team's in-season salary cap status.
