Jakob Johnson: Let go by Giants
The Giants released Johnson on Tuesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Johnson has been and up down between the Giants' active roster and practice squad since the end of training camp, and it's possible that the 29-year-old running back could stick around with Big Blue. Johnson has played 36 snaps (31 on special teams, five on offense) across two games with the Giants this season and has not accrued a carry or tackle over that span.

Giants' Jakob Johnson: Inks to active roster
The Giants signed Johnson to the active roster on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Johnson spent time with New York throughout the offseason and earned an initial spot on the team's practice squad, though he was cut on Friday. After the Giants' loss to the Vikings in Week 1, though, it looks like the team is exploring some schematic changes that could make an experienced fullback valuable. That could foreshadow the running game being leaned on versus Washington on the road on Sunday.

Jakob Johnson: No longer with New York
The Giants cut Johnson from their practice squad Friday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Johnson didn't make New York's 53-man roster out of training camp, but he was signed to the team's practice squad and then moved up to the active roster shortly thereafter. However, the fullback was subsequently moved back to the practice squad and has now parted ways with the Giants. Johnson could be an attractive option for another team's practice squad or even an option for an active roster, as he has plenty of NFL experience after having played in 63 regular-season games over the past four seasons between the Patriots and Raiders.

Jakob Johnson: Let go by Giants
Johnson was released by the Giants on Tuesday.
Johnson signed with New York on Aug. 16 after spending the last two seasons with the Raiders. However, the 29-year-old was unable to catch on as either a fullback or tight end during his short time with the Giants, leaving him as one of the odd men out on final cutdown day. Johnson totaled six touches while appearing in 30 regular-season games with Las Vegas.

Jakob Johnson: Signed by Giants
Johnson was signed by the Giants on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The fullback/tight end will play for a new team in the 2024 season after spending the last two years with Las Vegas, bringing in six catches for 22 yards in that span. With the tight-end pecking order still undetermined for New York, Johnson could compete for a part in the team's passing game, or he could become a staple fullback blocker for running back Devin Singletary.
