The New York Giants signed cornerback Leon McFadden off the Arizona Cardinals’ practice squad on Wednesday.

The 5-foot-10, 199-pound McFadden has played in 23 regular-season games with two starts for the Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers. He has recorded 21 tackles, one pass defensed and six special teams tackles.

McFadden entered the NFL as a third-round draft choice by the Browns in 2013 out of San Diego State. As a rookie, he played in all 16 games with two starts for the Browns, and had 16 tackles and four special teams tackles.

McFadden was waived by the 49ers on Sept. 5 and signed to the Cardinals’ practice squad on Sept. 8.

The Giants also re-signed tight end Jerome Cunningham and offensive lineman Adam Gettis to the practice squad after both players were released last week. Tackle Xavier Proctor was released from the practice squad.
