According to ESPN reporter Jordan Raanan, New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll announced that the team is signing offensive lineman Chris Hubbard off the San Francisco 49ers' practice squad. NFL teams can sign players from other teams' practice squads, provided the player agrees and is signed to the active roster.

The Giants, who recently lost tackle Andrew Thomas for the season due to a foot injury, are adding Hubbard to bolster their offensive line depth.

Hubbard originally signed with the 49ers on May 14 but was released on August 27 before being re-signed to the practice squad on September 11. The veteran lineman has played in 94 games, with 58 starts, throughout his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Cleveland Browns, and Tennessee Titans.

This move creates an opening on the 49ers' practice squad, which now has two remaining offensive linemen—Isaac Alarcon and Drake Nugent.
