Terrell Thomas and Shaun Rogers were placed on season-ending Injured Reserve, and veteran running back Danny Ware was waived Friday as the New York Giants reached the 53-man roster limit. Neither Thomas nor Rogers was given the short-term IR designation, meaning they cannot be brought back this season.

Let go were: Danny Ware (RB), Greg Jones (LB), David Douglas (WR), Dan DePalma (WR), Craig Marshall (DE), Matt Broha (DE), Dwayne Hendricks (DT), Jake Muasau (LB), Larry Donnell (TE), Matt McCants (OT), Selvish Capers (OL), Stephen Goodin (OL), Ryan Perrilloux (QB), Laron Scott (DB/KR), Isiaih Stanback (WR), Dante Hughes (CB), Marcus Thomas (DT), Chris White (OL).
Cornerback Bruce Johnson was waived/injured.
Thomas will now spend his second consecutive season on IR due to knee problems. He has undergone two ACL surgeries and aggravated the injury early in training camp.
Undrafted free agents Adewale Ojomo, a defensive end, and Will Hill, a safety, are players who did not figure to be part of the roster when the preseason began.
Ware is a five-year NFL veteran who was the team's third-down back a season ago.
