The New York Giants have been awarded offensive tackle Herb Taylor off waivers from Denver.
The Giants announced the move on Monday, a day after the Super Bowl.
Taylor was originally a sixth-round draft choice by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2007.
In two seasons with the Chiefs, Taylor played in 18 games with one start.
Although he has primarily played left tackle in his career, he has also filled in at the guard and tackle spots on the right side.
Taylor was waived by Kansas City on Sept. 4 and signed by Denver on Dec. 9.
He was on the active roster for one game but did not play.
He was waived by the Broncos on Dec. 19 before being re-signed on Dec. 29 and waived again on Jan. 2.
