The Giants today signed two exclusive rights free agents to renegotiated contracts and 13 players to reserve/future contracts.

Defensive back Madre Harper and tackle Jackson Barton are the re-signed free agents.

Harper joined the team on Oct. 1 and played in nine games. He had two solo tackles on defense and three tackles plus a fumble recovery (on Nov. 8 at Washington) on special teams.

Barton was claimed off waivers from Kansas City on Sept. 6. He was inactive for 15 games and active but did not play at Cincinnati on Nov. 29.

Those signed to reserve/future contracts are wide receiver Alex Bachman, linebacker Trent Harris, defensive back Montre Hartage and defensive back Jarren Williams, who each appeared in at least one game this season and ended the season on the practice squad. They were joined by four practice squad veterans: quarterback Alex Tanney, defensive back Quincy Wilson, long snapper Carson Tinker and guard Kenny Wiggins. Other practice squad players signed today were tight end Rysen John, running back Taquan Mizzell, defensive tackle David Moa, guard Chad Slade and quarterback Clayton Thorson.
