The Giants have cut or waived 5 guys and should be saving about 1 million in cap space for 2005. The cuts are Terry Cousin, Omar Stoutmire, Lorenzo Bromell, and Martin Chase. The Giants waived running back Antoine Womack.
What does it all mean? Well I can only speculate with the draft and free agency ahead, but I imagaine that the Giants fans shouting for Shaun Williams to be cut will have to wait a while. You wouldn't want Alexander, Wilson, and Burns to be our only safeties, would you?
Terry Cousin is no loss. I honestly thought a veteran corener who was a starter not too long ago would be a fine nickle back but I was completely wrong.
Martin Chase wasn't much of a backup as we really felt a difference when Hand went down. He won't be missed.
I'm a little surprised Womack was cut - I guess I just don't understand why reports said he looked impressive in training camp but still couldn't beat out Dayne. The Giants actually had to go looking for a short yardage back (Cloud) last season.
