Giants' Gunner Olszewski: Inks new deal
Olszewski re-signed with the Giants on a one-year contract Monday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Olszewski joined the G-Men last October after being released by the Steelers. Ultimately, he proved to be successful in handling the team's punt return duties, averaging 11.9 yards per return and taking one back for a touchdown in Week 17 against the Rams. He'll now have the opportunity to lock down that role again in 2024.

Giants' Gunner Olszewski: Stabilizes return game for G-Men
Olszewski finished the season with one reception (on one target) for zero yards over 12 games between the Giants and Steelers. He added 24 kick-return yards and 281 yards, along with a touchdown, as a punt returner.
As has been the case throughout his career, Olszewski worked primarily on special teams, with his one reception representing the lowest single-season mark across his five-year career. After seeing game action just twice over the first seven weeks of the campaign with Pittsburgh, the 27-year-old found a home in New York, taking over as the team's primary return man and recording his third career touchdown on a 94-yard punt return against the Rams in Week 17. He's set to be an unrestricted free agent, and it wouldn't be surprising if the Giants look to bring him back to fill the same kick- and punt-returner roles after he stabilized what had been a weak spot for the team prior to his arrival.

Giants' Gunner Olszewski: Limited to punt-return duties
Olszewski logged all nine of his snaps on special teams in Monday's 24-22 win over the Packers.
Since joining the Giants in late October, Olszewski hasn't factored into the mix at receiver. He's played all 39 of his snaps with New York on special teams, where he seems to have solidified himself as the team's top punt returner. He's brought back 12 punts for 111 yards through his first six games with the Giants.

Giants' Gunner Olszewski: Promoted to active roster again
The Giants signed Olszewski off their practice squad to their active roster Friday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Olszewski joined the Giants' practice squad ahead of Week 8 and worked as the team's lead punt returner versus the Jets after getting signed to the active roster. He was subsequently released and signed back to the active roster, and he has now been elevated again ahead of a Week 9 clash with the Raiders. The Giants have been hampered by poor punt-return play throughout the campaign, and both Eric Gray (calf) and Gary Brightwell (hamstring) are currently on IR, so Olszewski could stick as the team's lead punt returner moving forward. He's not likely to see much work on offense, however.

Gunner Olszewski: Back on practice squad
Olszewski re-signed with the Giants' practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
No surprise here, as Olszewski was cut following his elevation to the active roster for Week 8 against the Jets. He ultimately saw 11 snaps on special teams (30 percent) and averaged 9.3 yards on six punt returns. The 26-year-old is likely to be elevated in Week 9 to once again play a punt-returning role.

Gunner Olszewski: Joins Giants' practice squad
The Giants signed Olszewski to their practice squad Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Gunner Olszewski: Officially let go
The Steelers officially released Olszewski on Saturday, Teresa Varley of the team's official website reports.
No surprise here, as Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com previously reported this transaction was expected. Olszewski's exit will presumably open up a roster spot for fellow pass catcher Diontae Johnson (hamstring) to be activated off IR ahead of Week 7. Olszewski was primarily used as a returner during his two games on the 53-man roster.
