Former Clemson star running back signs with New York Giants

After being released by the Dallas Cowboys, former Clemson running back Phil Mafah has a new home in the NFL.

Former Clemson running back Phil Mafah is set to join the New York Giants, signing with their practice squad after being waived by the Dallas Cowboys, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Mafah, who was the seventh-round pick of Dallas in 2025, had a mixed rookie season due to injuries. He made the most of limited playing time, scoring a touchdown and contributing in a preseason game against the Cardinals.

Mafah's impressive career at Clemson, where he rushed for 2,887 yards and 28 touchdowns over four seasons, has earned him high expectations. Now, he hopes to capitalize on this new opportunity with the Giants, starting on their practice squad.
