The Giants will reunite Riley Dixon with his former long snapper. Casey Kreiter signed with the Giants on Wednesday, according to Ralph Vacchiano of SNY.

Both Dixon and Kreiter began their careers with the Broncos, playing together for two seasons. Kreiter’s Denver rookie contract expired after the 2019 season, sending the Broncos’ four-year long snapper into free agency.

While terms of this deal are not known, veteran snappers are confined to a precise salary range. The 2018 Pro Bowler’s salary will likely range $1.1M-$1.3M. In addition to spending four seasons in Denver, Kreiter went to camp twice with the Cowboys during Jason Garrett‘s run in Dallas.

Colin Holba snapped in five Giants games last season and remains under contract. The addition of the 29-year-old Kreiter also figures to spell the end of Zak DeOssie‘s time with the Giants. The two-time Pro Bowler went on injured reserve last season. DeOssie spent 13 seasons with the Giants, snapping in both of their most recent Super Bowl-winning campaigns.

The Giants expect DeOssie to retire, per ESPN.com’s Jordan Raanan. That would mean losing the final two members of their Super Bowl champion teams in one offseason, with Eli Manning having called it quits after 16 seasons.
