The Giants linebacker depth took a slight hit in the preseason opener against Detroit.
The Minnesota Vikings originally signed Cloyd as an undrafted free agent out of the University of Miami , where he spent one season following three years at Louisville.
Cloyd, 6-2 and 228 pounds, appeared in 49 games over four seasons and recorded 84 tackles, 7 tackles for a loss, two sacks, and three pass breakups. He will likely take up some of the snaps that were otherwise going to Dyonte Johnson, who will miss some time with an ankle sprain. Hayes, 5-11 and 194 pounds, played his college ball at BYU. A converted quarterback, Hayes originally signed with the Jaguars as an undrafted free agent last year, joining the Giants’ practice squad after training camp rosters were trimmed to 53 men.Patricia Traina has covered the New York Giants for over three decades for various media outlets.
