After two seasons with the Giants that produced only 26 receptions for 230 yards and no touchdowns, Moss vowed to improve in the [[2008 NFL season|2008 campaign]].<ref name="sin08">{{cite web|url=http://www.sportingnews.com/yourturn/viewtopic.php?t=406195|title=Giants' Sinorice Moss expects big year in 2008|author=Associated Press|publisher=|accessdate=2008-04-29|date=April 29, 2008}}</ref> Moss is quick to note that the addition of [[2008 NFL Draft#Third round|2008 Giants third round pick]] and fellow wide receiver [[Mario Manningham]] has not changed his approach this off-season and he is happy the Giants offense will have another weapon this season.<ref name="sin08"/> However, Manningham, as well as the Giants first pick in the [[2009 NFL Draft]], [[Hakeem Nicks]], quickly made his way ahead of Moss on the depth chart.
Prior to the 2010 season, [[Domenik Hixon]], who had taken the return job away from Moss during the 2009 season, tore his ACL and was placed on injured reserve. During the preseason, Moss competed for the return specialist job, but suffered from a sports hernia and on August 31, 2010 was placed on season-ending injured reserve. Moss was officially waived by the Giants on November 9, 2010 after reaching an injury settlement.<ref name="sin10">{{cite web|url=http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/11/09/giants-say-goodbye-to-sinorice-moss/|title=Giants say goodbye to Sinorice Moss |author=Florio, Mike|publisher=ProFootballTalk|accessdate=2010-11-16|date=November 9, 2010}}</ref> Primarily because of injuries, he departed New York after a five-year career that included just three touchdowns.<ref name="sin10"/>.
Adam Dubin has proclaimed the date that Sinorice Moss was cut, November 13, as Sinorice Day. The holiday is spent reflecting on unfortunate second round draft picks and then thanking your next of kin that the Giants front office was finally able to rectify their draft mistakes. The holiday concludes with the proverbial "changing of the diapers" signifying a new beginning after shitting the bed.
