The Giants today signed tackle KC McDermott to fill a vacancy on their practice squad created Saturday when Max Garcia was signed to the Arizona Cardinals' active roster.
McDermott, 6-5 and 330 pounds, spent the previous four years with the Jacksonville Jaguars, who signed him as a rookie free agent in 2018 from the University of Miami. He was released on Aug. 29.
McDermott played 16 games for the Jaguars – seven in 2020 and nine last season, including a start at right guard at New England on Jan. 2.
