Giants' Brian Lewerke: Signs with Giants
Lewerke agreed to a contract with the Giants on Sunday, agent Mike McCartney reports.
The combination of Mike Glennon and Clayton Thorson failed to reach 100 yards through the air in the preseason opener against the Jets with starter Daniel Jones sitting out, so the Giants have opted to shake things up in their quarterback room. Lewerke will likely compete with Thorson for the third-string quarterback role and could see some playing time in Week 2 of preseason against the Browns.
