Giants' Kalil Pimpleton: Gets call to active roster
Rotowire
The Giants elevated Pimpleton from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's wild-card game in Minnesota, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Corbin has spent the entire season on New York's practice squad, but this will be the first chance for the undrafted rookie to make his pro debut. He returned 48 punts at Central Michigan in college, so if he's active Sunday he may make a mark on special teams.

The Lions waived Pimpleton on Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Lions' Kalil Pimpleton: Looking good at rookie minicamp
Rotowire
Pimpleton was "electric" in the open field during the portions of Detroit's rookie minicamp that were open to the media, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports.
Only two FBS players with at least 10 punt returns averaged more return yards than Pimpleton did at Central Michigan in 2021. While Detroit just gave Kalif Raymond nearly $3 million for the upcoming season to presumably handle that role in Detroit, Pimpleton seems like solid depth to have on hand in case something happens.
