Inks deal with Minnesota The Vikings signed McCain on Monday.

Impact McCain, who spent his 2023 campaign with the Giants, has found a new home in Minnesota. The nine-year veteran safety played just 19 defensive snaps across 10 appearances in 2023, so he'll likely be competing for a special-teams role ahead of the Vikings' 2024 season.

Out Sunday McCain (illness) is inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact McCain was a late addition to the Giants' injury report, and he didn't travel with the team to D.C., so it's no surprise that he won't suit up Sunday. The veteran safety has appeared in seven games for New York this season, playing almost strictly on special teams and recording one total tackle.

Late addition to injury report McCain is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders due to an illness, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.

Impact McCain isn't traveling with the Giants due to his illness, so he'd have to recover quickly and make his way to DC in order to be able to suit up Sunday. The veteran safety has worked primarily on special teams this year, though he logged a season-high 16 defensive snaps in last week's blowout loss to Dallas. If McCain sits out Week 11, he'd miss out on the opportunity to face his former team -- he worked as a starter for the Commanders in both 2021 and 2022.

Scooped up by Giants McCain signed a one-year contract with the Giants on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact McCain, an eight-year veteran defensive back, is now slated to suit up for New York in 2023 following Tuesday's transaction. The 29-year-old had his two most productive seasons while playing for Washington across the last two years, as he registered 139 tackles, 14 passes defensed and four interceptions in that span.

Switches from safety to cornerback McCain appeared in 17 games (16 starts) during the 2022 season and recorded 76 tackles (54 solo).

Impact McCain switched positions from free safety to cornerback midway through the season following an ankle injury suffered by Benjamin St-Juste . While the 29-year-old didn't lead Washington in any statistical category, McCain finished top five in tackles and played 93 percent of the Commanders' snaps. With one year remaining on his contract, it remains to be seen what position the 2015 fifth-round pick will play, as Darrick Forrest seemingly locked himself into the starting free safety job.

Leads Washington with 11 stops McCain tallied 11 tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's Week 15 loss to the Giants. He also forced a fumble that was recovered by the Giants.

Impact McCain played more than 90 percent of the Commanders' defensive snaps for the eighth straight week and finished with a season-high 11 stops. The veteran linebacker had made a combined seven tackles over his previous two games, so this was a higher-than-usual level of production for him. McCain has already reached a career high with 71 tackles through 14 contests on the campaign.

Eight stops in loss McCain logged eight tackles (six solo) and one pass defended during Sunday's 20-17 defeat against the Vikings.

Impact McCain logged an identical performance compared to Washington's previous contest against the Colts in Week 8. The starting free safety now has 43 tackles (29 solo) and four passes defended through the first nine weeks of the season, and he'll have a chance to record his first interception of the season against the Eagles next Monday.

Team-leading tackler Sunday McCain recorded eight tackles (six solo) and a pass defended during Sunday's 17-16 win against the Colts.

Impact McCain notched a season high in tackles while playing all but one of the Commanders' defensive snaps. The veteran free safety has totaled 35 stops (23 solo) and three passes defended over eight games in 2022, and he should have a chance to set a new single-season career high in tackles barring any injuries moving forward.
