Giants Cut NFL Preseason Touchdown Leader Greg Dulcich

The New York Giants made a surprising roster decision by releasing tight end Greg Dulcich despite his strong preseason performance where he led the NFL in touchdowns. Dulcich, who has a prior connection with new quarterback Russell Wilson, caught seven passes for 53 yards and three touchdowns in the preseason but was cut in favor of rookie Thomas Fidone, a seventh-round pick known for both his blocking skills and unique off-field hobby as a self-taught tattoo artist. The Giants appear confident in their current tight end lineup, with Theo Johnson as the starter and Chris Manhertz likely securing a roster spot, leaving only one or two spots for others. Fans and analysts were puzzled by the move, speculating it could be due to blocking concerns, scheme fit, or the team's preference for younger players like Fidone. Dulcich, who was previously with the Denver Broncos before joining the Giants, is expected to be claimed by another team given his preseason success. This decision highlights the tough and business-like nature of NFL roster cuts, prioritizing team needs and potential over preseason statistics.
