Giants sign Dalen Cambre to active roster before season opener
Summary

The New York Giants signed wide receiver and special teams player Dalen Cambre to the 53-man roster on Friday. The move follows the team's decision to release Darius Slayton earlier this week, leaving the roster one player short at 52. Cambre, who spent last season primarily on the practice squad and appeared in seven games, earned the spot after an impressive training camp performance. His addition provides depth at the receiver position as the team prepares for Sunday's primetime game against the Dallas Cowboys. The status of star receiver Malik Nabers remains uncertain for the opener, as he manages recovery from a torn ACL. The organization is also expected to elevate wide receiver Braxton Berrios from the practice squad for special teams duties.
