The 26-year-old suited up in three games for the Rams after being elevated from the practice squad Week 11, logging just three solo tackles.

Giants' Donte Deayon: Take part in individual drills
Deayon (hamstring) participated in individual drills during Sunday's practice, Tom Rock of Newsday reports.
It looks like Deayon still has some work to do before he is back to being a full participant in practice, but he'll likely be looking to get back on the field as soon as possible given that he is currently sitting on the roster bubble. He'll be working toward being healthy enough to play in Friday's preseason game against the Jets.

Giants' Donte Deayon: Still not practicing
Deayon (hamstring) did not practice Sunday and has been out for multiple weeks, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Consider him day-to-day until New York can provide a clearer update on his health.
