The Giants announced the elevation of QB Jake Haener and OLB Trace Ford for Week 4.
Haener, 27, was a three-year starter at Fresno State and earned First-Team All-MWC as a senior, Second-Team All-MWC as a junior, and Honorable Mention All-MWC in 2020.
The Saints chose him with the 127th pick in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
Haener signed a four-year, $4,544,814 rookie contract that includes a $704,814 signing bonus. However, the team waived him after three seasons. The Giants signed him to their practice squad after the preseason and later to the active roster.
In 2024, Haener appeared in eight games for the Saints with one start and completed 46.2% of his passes for 226 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.
