#Giants are releasing former 1st-round pick Evan Neal.

 

[Frosty]

why would you post about a practice squad Olineman? and one that was just cut at that.

what a tough crowd.....it was posted on X. and I though I would share.....but wow what controversy it has became.. all the hate over a X post.....some of you all are just to much.....

 

[Silverz1972]

Damien pierce get that bad that fast?

Should cowboys bring him in for a look?

 

[ncelkins1]

Blue is a shocker

Not really. He wasn’t great at Texas and has fumbling, and maturity issues

 

[Floatyworm]

The nightmare is over........

Sources: The Cowboys have released veteran edge rusher Sam Williams, who signed a one-year deal with $2 million guaranteed in March. Von Miller addition took away an edge rusher spot on the 53.

Saw that Julias Woods got cut why is he not on this list.

He wasn't on the list @ the time......Another guy I think I would have kept.....over Marquese Bell.

This Bell kid has more lives than a cat. Still don't see the infatuation. Can't cover....Can't tackle. Doesn't play special teams...

 

[EPL0c0]

I figured Blue was gone. Sounds like the coaches have lost patience for him.

If so, feels like a culture shift

 

[Coogiguy03]

Maybe Dallas should have waited instead of trading for Jones

Yeah I think we didn't want to get caught up in other teams getting him before we could

 

[ShortRound]

not really surprising .... but nowhere else to post lol

 

[Coogiguy03]

not really surprising .... but nowhere else to post lol

Lol lol too good of a tackle on Kelce is clearly why

Bell is actually pretty good on the special teams unit. Bell was my surprise cut though on another thread.

#Giants are releasing former 1st-round pick Evan Neal.

Evan Neal has been pretty bad, Hyatt was a name that kept popping up around here before the Giants got him.

Huh? I get Bell offers little on defense, but "doesn't play special teams" is just making things up. Here's his 2025 special teams snap counts:

Snap Distribution

• • Kickoff return: 81 snaps
  • Kickoff coverage: 77 snaps
  • Field goal block: 67 snaps
  • Punt return: 40 snaps
  • Punt coverage: 39 snaps

The guy is literally a warm body out there taking snaps on special teams......He doesn't contribute anything....How about make some tackles???? If anything...He's a liability

He might just be filling out the roster until tomorrow afternoon when a waiver claim comes in. This 53 man roster is likely not final.

Evan Neal is just plain bad. It took a new coaching staff in NY with zero ties to him to finally cut the cord.

 

[stilltheguru]

not really surprising .... but nowhere else to post lol

He wUz sOlId right @Kwyn ?? Oh ok

 

[speedkilz88]

not really surprising .... but nowhere else to post lol

It's possible they put him on the practice squad and get him in football shape.
