Let go by New York
Tanney was waived by the Giants on Saturday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Impact
Tanney, who spent a bit of time on the reserve/COVID-19 list earlier in August, didn't really stand a chance at earning a roster spot after the team decided to sign veteran Colt McCoy. It's unclear whether Tanney will have a practice-squad spot afforded to him should he pass through waivers.

Back to healthy
Tanney was taken off the active/non-football illness list Monday.
Impact
Tanney spent less than a week on the list before rejoining the roster. The Giants elected to exercise the option on Tanney's contract for the 2020 campaign, and he'll spend training camp looking to upend Colt McCoy and Cooper Rush for backup duties behind Daniel Jones.
