Giants sign cornerback McFadden off Cardinals practice squad

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - The New York Giants have signed cornerback Leon McFadden off the Arizona Cardinals' practice squad.

The Giants announced the move Wednesday, a day after waiving safety Cooper Taylor.

McFadden has played in 23 regular-season games with Cleveland and San Francisco, starting two. The third-round draft pick of the Browns in 2013 has recorded 21 tackles.

McFadden was waived by the 49ers on Sept. 5 and signed to the Cardinals' practice squad on Sept. 8.

In practice squad moves, the Giants re-signed tight end Jerome Cunningham and offensive lineman Adam Gettis and released offensive tackle Xavier Proctor.
