Giants' Ray-Ray McCloud: Returns to practice squad
Ray-Ray McCloud reverted to the New York Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.After signing to New York's practice squad Oct. 23, McCloud was elevated for the first time ahead of Sunday's loss to San Francisco. He caught just one pass (on one target) for five yards in the contest but tallied the second-most offensive snaps (52 of 57) among New York's wideouts (Wan'Dale Robinson logged 57 and Darius Slayton tallied 51). None of the Giants' wide receivers aside from Robinson and Slayton had more than one catch (or one target) Sunday, so McCloud could be elevated again for Week 10 despite his quiet performance in his team debut.

Giants' Ray-Ray McCloud: Makes one catch in NYG debut
Ray-Ray McCloud caught his only target for five yards Sunday in a Week 9 loss to the 49ers.McCloud was elevated from the practice squad ahead of the contest and immediately worked as New York's No. 3 wideout. While the veteran out of Clemson logged a healthy offensive snap count, he saw just one target, which he caught for a five-yard gain. Meanwhile, Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton continued to work as Jaxson Dart's top two WR options, and the rookie QB otherwise threw just twice to other wideouts (once to McCloud and once to Gunner Olszewski). The New York Giants don't have much in the way of other WR options behind Robinson and Slayton, so it wouldn't be surprising if McCloud is elevated again in Week 10 to face the Bears.

Ray-Ray McCloud: Linking with Giants' practice squad
Ray-Ray McCloud is in line to sign with New York's practice squad Wednesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reportsMcCloud was released by the Falcons on Friday, but now he's already found a new home in the NFL with the WR-needy Giants, pending a physical. The 29-year-old boasts ample experience at both wide receiver and as a contributor in the return game, and across 17 regular-season appearances with Atlanta in 2024 he compiled a career-best receiving line with 62 catches, 686 yards and one touchdown on 87 targets. This year, however, McCloud racked up just six grabs for 64 yards across four regular-season appearances, and he had been a healthy scratch for the Falcons' prior two games.

Ray-Ray McCloud: Cut loose by Atlanta
The Falcons released Ray-Ray McCloud on Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.McCloud's dismissal comes after Atlanta made him a healthy inactive for each of its last two games. Atlanta head coach Raheem Morris initially said that McCloud's inactive status for the team's Week 6 win over Buffalo was a "coach's decision," but the veteran wideout/return man didn't end up practicing at any point in Week 7 after being sent home from team facilities. Morris didn't go into any specifics regarding any potential friction between McCloud and the team, but the 29-year-old will now get the chance to pursue a fresh start elsewhere. Given his ample NFL experience as a depth receiver and on punt and kickoff returns, McCloud shouldn't have much trouble finding an opportunity with another organization, either as a member of the 53-man roster or practice squad.
