The New York Giants concluded the preseason Saturday night with a 10-6 loss against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.
The majority of starters on both sides of the ball got the night off and most of the backups also got a reprieve.
Roster cuts can begin as soon as Sunday with the deadline trim the roster down to 53 players by Tuesday, Aug. 27 at 4:00 p.m. ET.

New York Giants' 53-man roster projection
Quarterback (3)
In: Daniel Jones, Drew Lock, Tommy DeVito
The Giants have to roll with three quarterbacks to begin the season. Jones is healthy but incredibly rusty while Lock works through an oblique injury. DeVito is well-versed in the offense so he's a decent emergency option.
Running Back (3)
In: Devin Singletary, Tyrone Tracy Jr. , Eric Gray
Out: Joshua Kelley, Lorenzo Lingard, Dante Miller
Miller did almost everything he needed to in order to make the roster, but it's simply a numbers game. His chances of making it through waivers give the Giants the option to add him to the practice squad.
Wide Receiver (6)
In: Malik Nabers , Darius Slayton, Wan'Dale Robinson, Jalin Hyatt, Miles Boykin, Isaiah McKenzie
Out: Isaiah Hodgins, Gunner Olszewski, John Jiles, Allen Robinson, Bryce Ford-Wheaton, Dennis Houston, Ayir Asante
The top four are locks while Boykin has a strong chance to make it due to his prowess on special teams. If Olszewski was healthy, he would get the nod over McKenzie, but it's unclear whether his injury will keep him out longer than Week 1.
Tight End (4)
In: Theo Johnson , Daniel Bellinger, Chris Manhertz, Jakob Johnson
Out: Jack Stoll, Lawrence Cager
Jakob Johnson makes the roster as a fullback as the Giants hope to add an extra blocker in the run game. Expect Theo to have a prominent role as a pass-catcher.
Offensive Line (9)
In: LT Andrew Thomas, LG Jon Runyan Jr., C John Michael Schmitz, RG Greg Van Roten, RT Jermaine Eluemunor, Evan Neal, Aaron Stinnie, Joshua Ezeudu, Jake Kubas
Out: Matt Nelson, Marcus McKethan, Austin Schlottmann, Jimmy Morrissey, Yodny Cajuste, Marcellus Johnson , Jalen Mayfield, Joshua Miles
The Giants could keep 10 offensive linemen with Schlottmann being that extra player. Until there are further updates on the injuries to Schmitz and Neal, the Giants role with nine.
Defensive Line (9)
In: Brian Burns, Dexter Lawrence, Rakeem Nunez-Roches, Kayvon Thibodeaux, Azeez Ojulari, Jordon Riley, Ryder Anderson, Boogie Basham, Elijah Chatman
Out: D.J. Davidson, Timmy Horne, Casey Rogers , Ovie Oghoufo , Tomon Fox, Benton Whitley
Davidson and Whitley are sleepers to make the roster after strong showings in the preseason. Ojulari is an intriguing trade candidate and could be replaced by Whitley on the strong side.
Linebacker (5)
In: Bobby Okereke, Micah McFadden, Dyontae Johnson, Darius Muasau , Matthew Adams
Out: Darrian Beavers, Carter Coughlin, K.J. Cloyd
The injuries to McFadden, Johnson and Adams could lead to Coughlin taking a spot. Johnson was an intriguing player at training camp but an ankle injury kept him out of the final two preseason games.
Cornerback (6)
In: Deonte Banks, Cor'Dale Flott, Andru Phillips , Nick McCloud, Alex Johnson , Tre Hawkins III
Out: Darnay Holmes, Breon Borders, Tre Herndon, David Long Jr., Christian Holmes
Flott's quad injury could land him on the injured reserve list to begin the season, which could put the Giants in a bind. Expect them to target this position heavily on the waiver wire.
Safety (5)
In: Jason Pinnock, Tyler Nubin , Dane Belton, Isaiah Simmons, Gervarrius Owens
Out: Raheem Layne, Jonathan Sutherland
The top of the room is essentially settled with Pinnock, Nubin and Belton. Simmons is currently being experimented with as a big slot defender. Owens has played his way onto the roster, but a knee injury has kept him off the field since the preseason opener. It's unclear if Owens' injury will keep him from making the roster.
Specialists (3)
In: Graham Gano, Casey Kreiter, Jamie Gillan
Out: Jude McAtemny
