Via ESPN:
Freeman will compete for the No. 2 job on the Giants with Curtis Painter and Ryan Nassib.
Eli Manning underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left ankle Thursday but expects to be able to run again in about six weeks, the team previously announced. His 151 consecutive starts rate as the longest active streak in the NFL following the retirement of Washington’s London Fletcher, and it is the third-longest by a quarterback in league history.
Freeman was cut by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in October. He was signed by the Minnesota Vikings and started just one game — losing to the Giants on “Monday Night Football.”
