NEW YORK GIANTS NEWS

Adoree' Jackson - Back in Big Apple The Giants signed Jackson to a contract Friday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Impact Per Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, it's reported to be a one-year deal. Jackson spent the previous three campaigns with the Giants, compiling 176 tackles, 23 pass defenses (two interceptions), two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and a defensive TD in 37 regular-season games. Because fellow cornerback Cor'Dale Flott is considered week-to-week due to a quadriceps injury, there's a chance Jackson may have a heavy workload and may even start Week 1 against the Vikings on Sunday, Sept. 8.

Drew Lock - Expected to be ready for Week 1 Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Sunday that Lock (hip) will likely be good to go for the start of the regular season, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.

Impact Lock hurt his hip in New York's preseason opener versus Detroit and didn't play in either of the team's remaining two exhibition contests. Daboll indicated Sunday that the quarterback is "moving in the right direction," which is supported by the fact that Lock recently returned to team drills and even even suited up for the Giants' preseason finale against the Jets on Saturday, though he didn't take the field. It's worth noting, though, that New York included three quarterbacks -- Lock, starter Daniel Jones and second-year pro Tommy DeVito -- on its initial 53-man roster, with DeVito possibly making the cut as insurance for Lock.

Isaiah McKenzie - Placed on season-ending IR The Giants placed McKenzie (lower body) on injured reserve Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
