Riley signed with the Giants on Thursday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports. Riley wasn't re-signed by the Steelers after a two-year stint with the team where he recorded just 66 defensive snaps across 17 regular-season games. Indeed, the 25-year-old will need to make an impact on special teams to secure a spot on the 53-man roster in 2024.
Riley headed to the locker room after suffering the injury, and he was ultimately unable to return. The veteran safety had seen more work on defense of late in the absence of Minkah Fitzpatrick (hamstring). Riley has also been a core special-teamer for the Steelers throughout the campaign.
