Bower signed with the Giants on Tuesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bower is now reunited with defensive line coach Andre Patterson, who helped the veteran for three years in Minnesota. The 28-year-old also had brief stints with New England and Las Vegas over the past two seasons. After going undrafted in 2017, the New Jersey native has appeared in 26 games throughout his five-year career, tallying 23 tackles and 2.0 sacks. Expect Bower to compete for a depth role on the Giants' defensive line ahead of the coming season.

Bower (illness) is no longer listed on the Raiders' injury report, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bower was inactive for his squad's Week 8 matchup against the Saints due to illness, but he appears to have returned to health. He hasn't appeared in a game since Week 8, so he's unlikely to see much playing time in Week 9 despite returning to full strength.

Bower (illness) is listed as inactive for Sunday's contest versus the Saints, per the team's official site.

EDGE Analysis

Bower isn't suiting up for the Week 8 matchup in New Orleans due to an illness, but his absence shouldn't alter the Raiders' game plan anyway. The 27-year-old has seen just 10 snaps thus far in 2022, and his next opportunity to play comes Week 9 in Jacksonville.
