EAST RUTHERFORD - The New York Giants, like every other NFL team, are in the process of cutting their roster from 90 down to 53 by Tuesday's 4 p.m. deadline.
The Giants got an early start towards the 53-man roster in the aftermath of their preseason finale, making eight moves. They made two more transactions Sunday in advance of cut down day, meaning the roster is at 80 (kicker Jude McAtamney is 81, but he will be exempt and a member of the practice squad because of the International Pathway Program).

The Giants began their roster cuts on Aug. 22. Here are the players who have been waived or released:
The veteran had started games for DC Shane Bowen in Tennessee. He was signed on the eve of training camp after working out for the Giants during their spring minicamp. The expectation was that Wallace would do enough in camp to bump up as the second pairing with Dan Belton, but that never materialized.
Washington had some juice and wiggle to his game, and a flair for the wild catch in camp. Dropped two passes from Jaxson Dart in Buffalo, and that inconsistency caught up to him in the preseason games and cost him in chase to squeeze out a spot.
The undrafted rookie showed flashes, but got caught up in a numbers' game. In previous seasons, he may have gotten more opportunities.
The man of 1,000 tackles last preseason was a late addition and never got his footing.
The undrafted rookie made some plays against the Patriots, but was not consistent enough.
The star of last summer failed to capitalize on chances in a group that was top heavy with Bobby Okereke, Micah McFadden and Darius Muasau.
The veteran was with the third and fourth units.
The veteran receiver had his moments in the Jets' joint practice, but never made a serious move for the active roster.
The undrafted rookie from Youngstown State moved to guard and spent the summer on the third and fourth units.
The undrafted rookie certainly ran the gamut of emotions in Thursday's preseason finale. He returned an interception for a touchdown, setting off a wild celebration on the sideline that caught national attention. Unfortunately, his promising night was dashed when his right leg buckled during a play on kick coverage. Moore underwent surgery to repair the fracture and was placed on IR, ending his season. He was likely a candidate for the practice squad.
