The Giants claimed wide receiver and kick returner Xavier Gipson off waivers from the Jets on Thursday.
They needed a corresponding move to get Gipson on the roster.
To that end, the Giants moved inside linebacker Micah McFadden to injured reserve, the team announced. McFadden will miss a minimum of four games before returning.
McFadden injured a foot during Sunday’s season-opening loss in Washington. The fourth-year linebacker had three tackles and a quarterback hit.
Darius Muasau stepped into the lineup for McFadden in Washington. Chris Board and Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles both saw action on special teams, but did not play any snaps on defense.
