The New York Giants added depth at running back, signing Jonathan Ward on Monday following a morning workout that included multiple free-agent hopefuls, according to multiple reports.

Ward, 27, has NFL experience with three teams, including five carries for 22 yards in four games with the Pittsburgh Steelers last season.


He has 22 career carries for 91 yards and six receptions for 52 yards in 46 games with the Arizona Cardinals (2020-22), Tennessee Titans (2022-23) and Steelers.

Ward originally signed with the Cardinals as an undrafted free agent out of Central Michigan.
