The New York Giants on Wednesday terminated the practice squad contract of veteran wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud.
McCloud, 29, was signed to the practice squad by the Giants on Oct. 22, one day after he was released by the Atlanta Falcons in a split that was apparently acrimonious.
McCloud was elevated from the practice squad for two games to help fill the void left by injuries to Malik Nabers and Darius Slayton. In those two games, he was targeted only one time, catching one pass for 5 yards.
Former Giants coach Brian Daboll was McCloud’s offensive coordinator when the Buffalo Bills selected McCloud in Round 6 of the 2018 NFL Draft.
McCloud’s second elevation from the practice squad came Week 10 against the Chicago Bears. Daboll was fired after that game, and McCloud has not been elevated for any of Mike Kafka’s three games as interim head coach.
McCloud recently had a lengthy Instagram post detailing his dissatisfaction with the way thing happened in Atlanta, leading to his exit from there:
