Giants released TE Daniel Coats. A fullback/tight end hybrid, Coats couldn't crack the roster despite the Giants' needs at both positions. His stone hands probably did him in.

Giants signed TE Daniel Coats. Coats started 11 games for the Bengals in 2009, but he's mostly a special teamer and blocking specialist. The Giants needed the depth after losing both Kevin Boss and Ben Patrick.

Broncos released TE Daniel Coats and waived FB Mike McLaughlin. A blocking specialist and special teamer, Coats was signed late last season as an injury fill-in. McLaughlin was a linebacker at Boston College.
