New York Giants added defensive lineman Josh Mauro to active roster on Saturday

The New York Giants added defensive lineman Josh Mauro to the active roster on Saturday and placed receiver/returner Stacey Coley on injured reserve, the team announced.

Mauro missed the season's first four games while serving a suspension for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing drugs.

Coley is bothered by a hamstring injury. He didn't catch a pass but returned two kickoffs for 27 yards and two punts for six yards in his lone game for the team. Coley joined the Giants on Sept. 19, one day after being released by the Minnesota Vikings.

Mauro signed a one-year deal as a free agent with the Giants in March. Just days later, his four-game suspension was announced by the NFL.

The Giants indicated they were aware the suspension would happen.

Mauro spent his first four NFL seasons with the Arizona Cardinals and had 75 tackles, two sacks and two forced fumbles in 47 games (26 starts).
