The Giants waived Basham on Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
After not playing in six of the Giants' first seven games to start the season, Basham is now off the active roster. Unless he's claimed by another team during the current waiver period, he'll become a free agent.

Basham has reportedly been traded from the Bills to the Giants, sources have told ESPN's Jordan Raanan. The teams are thought to have swapped late-round draft picks in a future season.
Basham was a second-round pick in 2021, but he never really progressed and the Bills are deep on the defensive line this season. While Giants coach Brian Daboll is an offensive guy, he's familiar with Basham from their time together in Buffalo and is apparently happy to see if he can get the Wake Forest product's career going at little cost to the franchise.
