The Patriots signed Baker to the practice squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Baker will find his next opportunity with the Patriots' practice squad after reaching an injury settlement with the Giants in mid-August due to a knee issue. He is a candidate to be elevated to the active roster if the Patriots need backfield depth behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson on gameday. Fellow practice squad running back Terrell Jennings has already been elevated by the Patriots three times, which means he would have to be officially signed to the active roster in order to play for New England again this season.

Baker (knee) was waived with an injury designation by the Giants on Monday, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
If the running back goes unclaimed, he will revert to New York's injured reserve list, at which point he would need to reach an injury settlement with the team to have a chance to play in 2025. Baker suffered the injury during one-on-one route-running drills Saturday. The undrafted free-agent signing out of Elon was competing for a depth spot behind Tyrone Tracy, Devin Singletary and Cam Skattebo.

Baker suffered a knee injury during Saturday's training camp practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Baker went down with the injury during 1-on-1 route running drills, but he was seen on the sidelines with a trainer and appears to have avoided a serious injury. The undrafted running back is competing for a backfield depth spot on the Giants' 53-man roster and stood to see an uptick in snaps in team drills due to Cam Skattebo (hamstring) being sidelined. If Baker can return to practice, he would likely split backup reps with Dante Miller while Skattebo and Eric Gray (undisclosed) are out of action.
