Giants promote Malik Harrison to active roster after early contributions
Summary

On October 14, 2026, the New York Giants promoted linebacker Malik Harrison to their active roster. Harrison had previously made a notable impact by recovering a fumble during the Giants' victory over the Tennessee Titans in his game-day elevation appearances. This promotion follows the end of his permitted practice-squad elevations. The move adds valuable linebacker depth behind Tremaine Edmunds and Arvell Reese, as Harrison aims to continue contributing on special teams and defensive assignments. The Giants also added Dawuane Smoot to the practice squad, representing a separate evaluation of pass-rush depth.
