Mike Garafolo of NFL Media reports that the Giants are signing veteran OL Justin Pugh to their practice squad on Tuesday.
The Giants’ offensive line has really been struggling so they could use whatever help they can get at this point.
Pugh, 33, is a former first-round pick of the Giants back in 2013. He played out the final year of his four-year, $8.346 million contract and made a base salary of $1,157,307 for the 2016 season when the Giants elected to pick up Pugh’s fifth-year option.
Pugh later signed a five-year contract worth over $45 million with the Cardinals in 2018. He had one more year left on that deal with a base salary of $8.025 million but agreed to a $4.25 million pay cut last year.
In 2022, Pugh appeared in five games for the Cardinals and made five starts at guard.
