The New York Giants have signed veteran defensive back Terrell Burgess to their practice squad.
The 23-year-old Burgess was a third-round pick of the Los Angeles Rams in the 2020 NFL draft. He spent three seasons in L.A., appearing in 30 games (three starts) and recording 29 tackles and one pass defensed.
Burgess also saw a significant amount of snaps on special teams and has only two missed tackles on his career.
The 5-foot-11, 202-pound Burgess, who was released three days ago, gained enough trust from Rams coaches that he appeared in four postseason games en route to their Super Bowl championship last season.
Burgess played his college ball at Utah, where he earned second-team Pac-12 All-Academic honors in consecutive years (2018, 2019).
