The 24-year old was considered to be on the bubble heading into Sunday's roster cutdown for the Ravens.The Giants were short on interior defensive line depth and add a player with familiarity to the coaching staff. Okoye joins fellow former Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely, punter Jordan Stout, defensive back Ar'Darius Washington and fullback Patrick Ricard in New York.The Giants added a seventh-round pick in the 2028 draft earlier this week when they sent offensive lineman Joshua Ezeudu to the Kansas City Chiefs.

At 6 feet 6, 365 pounds, Okoye is a sizable presence in the middle.ESPN's Jordan Raanan contributed to this report.
