The Giants today terminated the practice squad contract of tight end Ryan Izzo and signed defensive back Steven Parker to the squad.

Parker, 6-1 and 210 pounds, has played in 22 NFL regular-season games with four starts. His totals include 24 tackles (17 solo) and two interceptions he returned 35 yards.

In 2019, he made the Miami Dolphins' roster as an undrafted rookie and played in 14 games with four starts for defensive coordinator Patrick Graham, who is now in the same position with the Giants. Last year, Parker played in eight games for Dallas.

Parker played in 53 games at the University of Oklahoma.
