The New York Giants made the signing of veteran cornerback Adoree' Jackson official on Saturday and in a corresponding roster move, they released fullback Jakob Johnson. Again.

Johnson, who was signed late in training camp, has played a game of musical chairs over the past week. He was released as a part of final cuts, signed to the practice squad, and then elevated to the 53-man roster after offensive lineman Austin Schlottmann landed on injured reserve (IR).

Now Johnson is likely headed back to the practice squad, which will require a corresponding roster move of its own.

The 6-foot-3, 255-pound Johnson went undrafted out of Tennessee in 2018 before spending a season with Germany's Stuttgart Scorpions. He made his NFL debut in 2019 with the New England Patriots as part of the NFL's International Player Pathway Program.

Johnson, 29, spent the past two seasons with the Las Vegas Raiders, where he worked closely with current Giants offensive line coach Carmen Bricillo.

Born in Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, Johnson remains a co-owner and executive of the Scorpions franchise.

In 67 career games (34 starts), Johnson has rushed for 105 yards and one touchdown, averaging 5.5 yards per carry. He serves primarily as a blocker and also plays special teams.
