NY Giants news: Defining success, rookie expectations, good news on Malik Nabers

Yahoo Sports NFLJul 24, 2026, 3:32 PM+21 stories · 30dSource ↗

Malik Nabers Darius Slayton Calvin Austin

Good morning, New York Giants fans! Here are the stories you need to know about today. The question remains about when Malik Nabers will return from rehab on his right knee, with the Giants hopeful he can play the season opener against the Cowboys. The Giants wide receiver, though, is expected to avoid the active/physically unable to perform list to start camp, according to ESPN’s Jordan Raanan. Which offensive and defensive rookies are you most excited to see in training camp and preseason? Defensively, give me Arvell Reese. He was a bit of a surprise pick to the Giants, though his talent is not in question. Reese was a hybrid defender at Ohio State, splitting his time between edge rusher and off-ball linebacker, and it appears the Giants will deploy him similarly. Even with changes up front, Reese could be a monster on a front that features Brian Burns , Kayvon Thibodeaux and Abdul Carter , along with free-agent LB addition Tremaine Edmunds . I’ll be curious to see just how much the Giants put on Reese’s plate. They tried a similar approach with Carter as a rookie, and it took until later in his rookie season for the former Penn State star to really shine. Reese has all the tools to be a star eventually, but his instincts will be put to the test in Year 1. The preseason tape should be fascinating to watch. What will this offense look like if Malik Nabers is sidelined? There’s no certainty that receiver Malik Nabers, who is recovering from injuries to his ACL and meniscus, will be cleared to practice without restrictions at the start of training camp, and we should not assume that the Giants’ best offensive player will be ready by the start of the season. If he can’t go, the Giants will be trying to patch together a passing game with receivers like Darius Slayton , Calvin Austin III , Darnell Mooney , and Odell Beckham Jr. I don’t envision much explosive passing from New York until Nabers is back, and I worry about quarterback Jaxson Dart ’s development without him. Biggest storyline: How will the Giants handle increased expectations and a new coach? New York added a Super Bowl-winning coach with John Harbaugh to work with a young quarterback in Jaxson Dart. That combination alone has some thinking the Giants will have an immediate turnaround. (Reminder: They won just seven games in the past two seasons combined.) Throw in that they had two top-10 draft picks who are expected to contribute immediately and it’s supposed to instantly produce more wins. But with new schemes offensively and defensively, it might not look so promising right away. How will the organization handle that? The increased workload will also be something to watch, especially when Harbaugh is known as an old-school coach who runs one of the league’s harder training camps. Cutting Okereke, keeping Thibodeaux, re-signing Eluemunor, letting Robinson walk and taking the best player available with the fifth pick were clear similarities between my plan and the Giants’ actions. There were also some differences, particularly in the lack of investment in the trenches in free agency. The Mauigoa pick mitigates that to an extent, but the Giants couldn’t have known they’d have that pick while making free-agency decisions. The biggest divide was the Lawrence situation. It was impossible at the time of my plan to have a full grasp on the interpersonal dynamics that eroded the relationship. I still wonder whether the Giants, if they had proactively made my extension offer, could have avoided the ugly standoff, but all things considered, they made the best of a tough situation by securing the 10th pick in the trade. Biggest Additions: The New York Giants are beginning a new era with young players like Malik Nabers, Cam Skattebo , and quarterback Jaxson Dart. This offseason, they added a Super Bowl-winning coach in John Harbaugh to the equation. As a group, the NFC East has the potential to be a very improved division in 2026.

When and where: Week 9 at home, Week 18 in New Jersey Key additions: HC John Harbaugh, LB Tremaine Edmunds , WR Darnell Mooney , half of the Ravens roster Key subtractions: DT Dexter Lawrence , WR Wan’Dale Robinson, LB Bobby Okereke Last season: Brian Daboll, who was not fired a year ago for appearances, was fired The question for this team: Is John Harbaugh a magician? John Harbaugh is here and he is going to fix everything. Never mind that he’s coming off his worst season in a decade, and possibly his career. Never mind that he only won 4 playoff games in his last 13 years. Never mind that he thought he was taking Todd Monken with him only for Monken to take the Browns job, leaving him to turn to Matt Nagy. Never mind that he is leaving one of the better run teams from top to bottom to one of the worst. Because John Harbaugh is here and he is going to fix everything! There’s a lot that needs to be fixed. In 9 of Harbaugh’s 18 years in Baltimore , the Ravens had a top 3 scoring defense. The Giants were 26th in 2025 and haven’t had a top 3 finish in a decade. Harbaugh traded not just his best defensive player but one of the better interior defensive linemen for 1 (one) draft pick. The Giants signed 22 players in free agency, almost all to one year contracts, and most of those to minimum deals. And in addition to signing five former Ravens, the Giants also signed 11 players who Harbaugh coached against last year. In June the Giants brought in JuJu Smith-Schuster , Braxton Berrios , and Odell Beckham for workouts, which seemed like a joke. They signed all three. The Giants have speed run to the “sign guys the coach has heard of” phase of poor roster construction. The Giants also did the classic “it’s a new era” move and replaced their long snapper. Harbaugh does bring competence to the Giants, something they haven’t had in a decade. But you don’t give a coach top of the line salary to achieve competence. You don’t drag out contract negotiations, with details leaking out daily, just to get competence. For 2026, competence will be progress. A four or five win improvement would be significant, and give Harbaugh even more reason to sign some more former Ravens or guys he coached against in 2027. But for all their moves it’s not clear that the Giants even improved their roster. They haven’t significantly improved their skill position players to help Jaxson Dart , their defense has not only not significantly improved it has possibly gotten worse, and their playcallers are uninspiring. The Giants are putting a lot of faith in the magic beans of John Harbaugh. Ben McAdoo was fired in his second season, Pat Shurmur and Joe Judge after their second seasons, and Brian Daboll should have been fired after his third but John Mara didn’t want to seem reactionary and fire him in the offseason, instead firing him during the season. How long does Harbaugh last?

Survey results: NY Giants fans expect Isaiah Likely to be an impact player

Yahoo Sports NFLJul 18, 2026, 8:00 PM+4 stories · 30dSource ↗

Isaiah Likely Velus Jones Darnell Mooney

It was viewed as something of a surprise when the New York Giants didn’t move to remake their roster in free agency. John Harbaugh believes that the Giants’ existing roster is in a pretty good place and only needed a few additions to compete with anyone in the NFL. The national media, on the other hand, disagrees and the general consensus seems to be that a six- or seven-win season would be a good step forward for the Giants in Harbaugh’s first year. If the Giants are going to surprise the national media and exceed their expected win total, which is currently set at 7.5 on FanDuel , they’re going to need their veteran additions to have an impact. So this week we asked you which of the Giants’ biggest-name free agents will have the biggest impact for the Giants. The answer was, unsrurpisingly, tight end Isaiah Likely . Like I said, I fully expected Likely to come out on top in this poll. He’ll likely (no pun intended) see the field more than the other three players, and have more tangible production than Reader or Ricard. I could have included any of the myriad wide receivers, punter Jordan Stout , or linebacker Tremaine Edmunds in the poll. However, I do believe Likely will be a more consistent impact player than Mooney, Austin, Beckham, Smith-Schuster, or Berrios. Likewise, I don’t think Edmunds will be an impact player if Reader isn’t an effective defensive tackle. That leaves punter Jordan Stout, who I thought seriously about including. After all, fans who remember Steve Weatherford constantly flipping the field in the second half of the NFC Championship against the San Francisco 49ers will understand how impactful great punting can be. That certainly would have made the poll more interesting. However, I decided to make a bit of a point here with including Ar’Darius Washington over Stout. Here’s what I wrote in the original survey: One of the dominos to fall in Harbaugh’s arrival in New York was Washington’s injury in the spring of 2025. He was coming off of a breakout season for the Ravens and looking to become one of the big names at the safety position in the NFL. Modern NFL defenses demand a talented “STAR” to blur the lines between box safety, free safety, and slot corner, and allow the defense to be multiple without constantly shifting subpackages. The Ravens definitely noticed Washington’s absence in 2025 and now the Giants hope he can once again be a multifaceted sparkplug for the defense. The nature of defenses is changing right before our eyes. The Giants were one of the first teams to make heavy use of the “big nickel” package with their three safety set back in 2011, and proved highly effective against the Patriots’ 12-personnel package. It’s cropped up several times with other teams over the last couple years, but 2025 was a watershed year. We saw players like Kyle Hamilton , Nick Emmanwori , Cooper DeJean , and Budda Baker change how their defenses are able to gameplan and attack offenses. It’s no coincidence that we saw a very high number of safeties drafted highly this year, as more teams look for ways in which to combat modern offensive trends. Having a nickel defender who can blur the lines between slot corner and box safety is an incredible advantage for defenses. It allows them to shift looks and alignments on the fly and effectively deal with the run or pass, from 11 or 12-personnel packages. “STAR” is the Nick Saban terminology for the position, and I believe that we’ll hear the term used far more frequently over the next year as defensive trends shift. Dennard Wilson wants to run an aggressive match quarters defense that does a lot on the back end. Adding Washington to Dru Phillips gives Wilson more flexibility in designing coverage schemes, post-snap rotations, disguises, and pressures. The fact that just 7% of fans listed him as potentially having the biggest impact, while he could be one of the defense’s pivot players, suggests that he’s a guy we should be keeping an eye on this summer [... truncated ...]

Everyone is asking the wrong question about Brandon Aiyuk

CBS Sports NFLJul 16, 2026, 3:45 PM+79 stories · 30dSource ↗

Brandon Aiyuk Jordy Nelson Keenan Allen

Let's start with the obvious question: Will Brandon Aiyuk ever be the same player again? By the time he plays another meaningful NFL snap -- and, for now, the Washington Commanders seem like the favorites to land him -- he'll be 28 and nearly two years removed from the torn ACL and MCL that ended his 2024 season. That's enough to make you wonder if Washington would get the player San Francisco once viewed as its No. 1 receiver. Or would it be the latest iteration of a game-changing talent whose career was altered by a devastating injury? But we might be focusing on the wrong thing: the biggest issue working against Brandon Aiyuk isn't his age; it's the time away from football played at the highest level. If Aiyuk stayed healthy, he'd likely be smack-dab in the middle of his physical peak. Instead, he is attempting to jumpstart a career after a 20-month competitive drought. This is incredibly uncommon in today's NFL. To map out what his road back looks like, we have to separate the biological clock from the injury clock. We tend to lump every ACL recovery into the same bucket. A player tears a knee, rehabs for a year, and comes back. Aiyuk's situation is different; between the injury, rehabilitation and everything surrounding his future, he'll likely go almost two full calendar years without meaningful football. That's an absurdly long time for a skill-position player whose game depends on timing, rhythm and repetition. But to understand the true cost of that missed time, we first have to answer a more basic question: What normally happens to good receivers at 28? I looked at a group of established veterans* whose games have been built as much on route running, separation and technical refinement as pure athleticism. *Historical averages for an established cohort of NFL wide receivers included: Jordy Nelson , Keenan Allen , Robert Woods , Davante Adams , Odell Beckham Jr. , Allen Robinson II, Amari Cooper , Stefon Diggs , Tyler Lockett , Michael Thomas , Cooper Kupp , Chris Godwin , Calvin Ridley , Terry McLaurin . Age Yards per Route Run PFF Route Grade Phase of Career 26 2.11 82.0 Prime years 27 1.92 80.2 Prime years 28 2.05 80.7 ... Still firmly in prime The takeaway: turning 28 does not trigger a sudden athletic-decline tax. Efficiency and grading remain remarkably stable. If Aiyuk fails to return to form, you can't blame the birth certificate; you have to blame the rust. Finding historical precedents for Aiyuk is incredibly difficult because healthy, in-their-prime receivers rarely sit out this long. In fact, after digging through more than 5,500 NFL receiver seasons, I found exactly four modern examples that even came close to Aiyuk's combination of both established production and roughly 20 months away from football. The four presented a mixed bag of warning signs and hope. Jordy Nelson returned from a torn ACL and immediately looked like himself again. Calvin Ridley was away from football for 23 months and topped 1,000 receiving yards, but his layoff stemmed from a mental health leave and an NFL suspension – not a major injury – which complicates comparisons to Aiyuk's situation. Odell Beckham Jr. returned after a 19-month absence following his ACL tear and reinvented himself as an efficient complementary receiver. Michael Thomas came back after nearly 20 months away, only to have another injury cut short what had been an encouraging start to his return. Player Age at Return Time Away Why He Missed Time First Season After Return The takeaway for Aiyuk Jordy Nelson 31 13 months Torn ACL (2015 preseason) 97 rec., 1,257 yds., 14 TD Best-case scenario: returned almost immediately to All-Pro form after a conventional ACL timeline but also missed just 13 months. Calvin Ridley 28 23 months Mental health leave and NFL suspension (not injury) 76 rec., 1,016 yds., 8 TD Best calendar comparison , but without the challenge of returning to form after serious injury.

Can the NY Giants upgraded offensive line make up for Malik Nabers’ injury?

Yahoo Sports NFLJul 7, 2026, 8:09 PM+24 stories · 30dSource ↗

Jaxson Dart Isaiah Likely Darnell Mooney

There is a definite sense of optimism surrounding the New York Giants, and real excitement for what the team can be in 2026. The Giants are considered one of the most likely teams in the NFL to make the leap from worst to first and could challenge the Philadelphia Eagles for the division crown. The biggest reason for that is the arrival of head coach John Harbaugh, but the Giants have also had a strong off-season that may have brought upgrades to almost every position on the field. The first priority for the Giants this off-season has been to build an environment in which Jaxson Dart can mature into a true franchise quarterback. ESPN polled their NFC East writers on the state of the teams they cover, and the very first question was how each team’s off-season impacts their respective quarterback. Giants writer Jordan Raanan noted the Giants’ many additions to their skill positions as a potential improvement for Dart, but believes the (potential) improvements to the offensive line will have a bigger impact. The Giants have contingencies for Jaxson Dart with the signings of tight end Isaiah Likely and wide receivers Darnell Mooney , Calvin Austin III and even Odell Beckham Jr. Of course, it would also be nice if he had star wide receiver Malik Nabers at his disposal. Nabers is still recovering from a serious knee injury and remains uncertain for Week 1, although the Giants remain hopeful. It would be a bit more than “nice” if the Giants have Nabers for the start of the 2026 season. That said, the Giants have certainly done a good job of giving themselves options when it comes to pass catchers. Isaiah Likely and Darnell Mooney will probably be quality additions to the offense, with the potential to be much more. Calvin Austin III has the potential to be an explosive weapon, while Beckham and Smith-Schuster could become reliable options for Dart. There’s the potential for high variance with all these players, and they’re all more likely to hit their positive outcomes with Nabers on the field. If Nabers isn’t ready to start the year, Raanan believes that the additions of Sisi Mauigoa and Patrick Ricard will help smooth things out while Nabers finds his way back to the field and rounds into form. Still, the biggest offensive upgrades this offseason have been to the offensive line. Shhhh, don’t tell anyone. The Giants’ offensive line isn’t just fixed, it’s the strength of the offense after the additions of right guard Francis Mauigoa with the 10th draft pick and the signing of All-Pro fullback Patrick Ricard. The biggest thing Dart has going for him is that he should have the help of quality protection and a running game. It’s honestly kinda weird that people still cite the Giants’ offensive line as a problem. I get it: Narratives go around the world while facts are still tying their shoes. But still, the Giants finished 11th in pass protection and 18th in run blocking. And that’s with Andrew Thomas (4 games), Jon Runyan Jr. (1 game), John Michael Schmitz (4 games), and Jermaine Eluemunor (1 game) all missing time last year. I wouldn’t go so far as to say that the Giants’ offensive line was a weapon against defenses, but it was certainly a “quality” unit. Dart certainly wasn’t running for his life and was his own worst enemy when it came to protection at times It will be interesting to see how the Giants’ running game changes with the new regime, as well as Mauigoa and Ricard. The Giants were 5th in rushing yards per game, rushing touchdowns, and rushing EPA last year, so it’s also not like that was lagging in any regard. That said, we do need to see the load shift from Jaxson Dart to the running backs. Dart is one of the best running quarterbacks in the NFL, and legitimately runs like a running back. His vision and agility make his legs a weapon, but it should be a weapon of last resort. Fielding a top-5 running game that’s only supplemented — not driven — by the quarterback will be a big unlock for this team. Turning ba [... truncated ...]

Giants news, 6/27: 10 wins? Paulson Adebo’s significance, more

Yahoo Sports NFLJun 27, 2026, 2:00 PM+24 stories · 30dSource ↗

Jaxson Dart Cam Skattebo Malik Nabers

Good morning, New York Giants fans! Greg Olsen picks the NY Giants to surprise with 10 wins Are the Giants spending their money wisely this season? Giants’ top 10 most important players: No. 6 — CB Paulson Adebo NFC East Grades: Where do the NY Giants stack up at linebacker? New York Giants. Harbaugh’s offseason jump from Baltimore to New York makes the Ravens more intriguing while simultaneously giving the Giants the final flourish on their claim as the league’s most compelling team in 2026. The Super Bowl–winning head coach takes over a Giants squad led by standout sophomore Jaxson Dart , who produced 24 combined passing and rushing touchdowns to just five interceptions as a first-round rookie in 2025 and is already the face of the franchise. Second-year back Cam Skattebo has already become a cult hero, while pass-catchers Isaiah Likely (who followed Harbaugh from Baltimore ) and Malik Nabers (returning from a torn ACL) should help solidify one of the best young offensive cores in the game. Add in a defense built around top-five picks from each of the last two drafts in support of reigning NFC sack leader Brian Burns , and the Giants have the pieces to shock the league if everything coalesces in 2026. There’s an awful lot of hype around Dart right now. Although at least part of that comes from a starved Giants fan base, a big part of me wants to buy in on all of it. Dart is a unique player who presents unique challenges — not just for opposing defenses, but for his own team. Dart’s playing style and skill set can make him a danger to himself if he’s not reeled in. The best news, though, is that John Harbaugh is now Dart’s head coach. Kafka did a great job creating an offense around Dart last year, but Harbaugh’s staff will be better equipped to help him as a dual-threat player. Health permitting, I expect a sizable jump from Dart, who has the ability to finally give the Giants the franchise QB for whom they’ve been searching. Giants sign Odell Beckham Jr., other receivers amid Malik Nabers injury questions. When head coach John Harbaugh said that Nabers’ recovery from multiple knee surgeries was “not simple,” it raised some questions about the receiver’s timetable and future forecast. In a league where it feels like 90 percent of rehabbing players seem to be “ahead of schedule,” this injury update felt like a bad omen. And I get that. I also get the feeling that the Giants’ signings of Beckham, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Braxton Berrios were insurance moves guarding against potentially not having Nabers to start the season. That came after the Giants had already added veterans Darnell Mooney and Calvin Austin III and drafted Malachi Fields . Look, I can’t assure you Nabers is going to be fine. New York’s certainly a better team with a healthy Nabers, no doubt. But I think the G-Men can at least survive if he’s not 100 percent to start the season, even if general manager Joe Schoen still believes Nabers will be available for Week 1. LB Darius Muasau ; Biggest Threat: LB Jack Kelly. Through two seasons, Muasau, against the run, has a 15.3% tackle rate, which, when compared to Okereke’s 18% figure, ranked second among the team’s linebackers based on PFF data. With the arrivals of Tremaine Edmunds and Arvell Reese, any realistic chance of Muasau landing a starting job has probably evaporated. That leaves him to compete for a depth role where his primary competition will be rookie Jack Kelly, a sixth-round pick out of BYU, who, like Muasau, is an inside linebacker that can provide help on special teams. Kelly appears to bring a little more to the table. For one, he offers a bit more as a situational pass rusher. Per PFF, Kelly posted the fifth-most quarterback pressures (36) in the 2026 draft-eligible linebacker class. The former BYU standout ended his final year of college play with the best pass-rush win rate (19.8) among 26 qualifying linebackers with a minimum of 90 pass-rushing attempts. Muasau has value to a team, [... truncated ...]

Is Kobie Turner more important than Kevin Dotson?

A team is only as strong as its weakest link, but the Los Angeles Rams are mostly relying on their superstars to take them to the Super Bowl, just as they did in 2021. It’s more about their top-eight players than it is their bottom-eight. The 2021 team had Matthew Stafford , Cooper Kupp , Aaron Donald , Jalen Ramsey , Andrew Whitworth , Von Miller , Odell Beckham … they were more top-heavy than well-rounded. And that’s fine, they won the Super Bowl! Sean McVay is looking at a similar formula in 2026. So who are the Rams top-eight players? You voted for them! Moving into the top-eight of The Tournament of Ram-pions, we’re going to slot the top-four players into the next round already (Stafford, Puka , Garrett, McDuffie) and try to get some more compelling matchups in this round. So vote for who you think are the most important two players out of these four: Kevin Dotson takes on Kobie Turner, and Kyren Williams faces Quentin Lake . Who should advance to the next round? In the last round, Dotson beat Steve Avila 82-18 . And Turner beat Jaylen Watson 65-35 . But had Turner faced Avila, maybe he would have won with over 80% of the vote? Dotson’s road from being iced out of a job in Pittsburgh to being an All-Pro caliber guard in L.A. is remarkable. His backup is Justin Dedich , who came in for him at the end of 2025 and the Rams didn’t really struggle to score. The Rams averaged 26.7 points per game in his seven total appearances. Turner’s backup is Ty Hamilton or maybe Tyler Davis. Or seventh rounder Tim Keenan III. Turner’s never gotten a lot of credit for what he’s done in the NFL, often having his sacks attributed to who his teammates are. But few defensive tackles in history have posted 24 sacks in their first three seasons. Five more sacks and he’ll surpass Michael Brockers ’ entire career total with the Rams. Vote! Lake beat Kam Curl 74-26, whereas Kyren beat Davante Adams 59-41. Both fascinating matchups, and we have another intriguing bout here. Would you rather the Rams had Lake, the versatile defensive back who seems to get better every year? Or Williams, one of the most productive players in the league? Lake missed seven games last year and the Rams went 4-3. His backup is anyone’s guess at this point. Kyren is backed up by Blake Corum . Vote! These four will move into another round. We’ll sort out how these players match-up with their next opponents after these votes are completed

Is there one remaining free agent the NY Giants should sign?

Stefon Diggs Deebo Samuel Darren Waller

Roster-building never really ends for NFL teams, even in the heat of summer when players are away and practice fields are ghost towns. The New York Giants have done a lot this offseason, remaking their defense and special teams, adding several wide receivers who will compete for jobs, and remaking their defensive and offensive lines. Still, there is always more that could be done. Is there ONE move the Giants could, or should, make to upgrade their roster before training camp begins in late July? NFL.com recently revisited its list of the top 101 free agents who entered the offseason. Eleven of those players remain unsigned. They are: DE Joey Bosa WR Stefon Diggs WR Deebo Samuel G Kevin Zeitler Edge Haasan Reddick TE Darren Waller CB Trevon Diggs Edge Kyle Van Noy QB Jimmy Garoppolo OT Taylor Decker Edge Jadeveon Clowney From that list, is there a player you would like to see in a Giants’ jersey when training camp opens in West Virginia? For me, there are four possibilities. Let’s go through them. NFL Media’s Gregg Rosenthal writes: Still an excellent route runner and third-down option, Diggs would have been initially ranked higher as a short-term play if not for his then-pending legal matter . Recently, he’s been found not guilty and won’t be disciplined by the NFL , opening the door for a potential signing. The Giants added two wide receivers — Darnell Mooney and Calvin Austin III — early in free agency. They added three more — Odell Beckham Jr. , JuJu Smith-Schuster , Braxton Berrios — at the beginning of June. Diggs, who turns 33 in November, is clearly better than any of them. Whatever you think of Diggs’ legal issues, he has been cleared and is eligible to sign. The rash of signings a few weeks ago suggests the Giants are concerned they might not have enough at wide receiver. Diggs caught 85 passes for 1,013 yards for the New England Patriots a year ago. The only time Diggs has not surpassed 1,000 receiving yards was 2024, when he played in just eight games. He would be WR2 for the Giants behind Nabers no matter who else is on the roster. No player on this list would help Jaxson Dart more than Diggs. How likely is it that the Giants would sign Diggs? Not very, to be honest. The Giants are likely on the upswing, but at this point in his career Diggs is a mercenary looking for the team that gives him the best shot at a Super Bowl ring. In 2026, that is probably not the Giants. Rosenthal writes: Deebo looked like his old self in Washington for stretches. His burst seems to come and go these days, so a role with reduced snaps could maximize his impact. Again, we return to the argument I just made with Diggs. Samuel is not as good as Diggs. He isn’t as dynamic or multi-talented as he was during his prime with the San Francisco 49ers . Still, he caught 72 passes last season, the second-most in his career, for more than 700 yards. He, like Diggs, would be WR2 for the Giants behind Nabers. Also like Diggs, this is a move I don’t see as likely. The Giants drafted Colton Hood in Round 2, and I wouldn’t look at Diggs, younger brother of Stefon, as a player I would sign expecting him to stand in the way of Hood’s development. If Hood earns the reps opposite Paulson Adebo , he should get them. And I believe he will. Thing is, the Giants have two reclamation projects — Greg Newsome and Deonte Banks — competing with Hood for the starting job opposite Adebo. The upside with Diggs, who turns 28 in September, is higher than with either Newsome or Banks. Diggs’ 11-interception All-Pro season with the Dallas Cowboys came way back in 2021, but it happened. Diggs has played in just 22 games over the past three seasons due to injuries, the most severe of which was a left ACL tear in 2023. Most likely, Diggs is not ever going to approach that 2021 season again. The real question is whether Diggs would be an upgrade over Newsome or Banks. Diggs would likely be available for a veteran minimum deal. The Giants don’ [... truncated ...]

The Giants are optimistic WR Malik Nabers will be ready for Week 1, but if he is not, or not at full strength after a complex knee injury and subsequent surgery, questions remain about the team's receiving depth. The team added veteran receivers Odell Beckham Jr., Braxton Berrios, and JuJu Smith-Schuster in early June to bolster the position. Calvin Austin is seen as a potential replacement for Wan'Dale Robinson

Malik Nabers Darnell Mooney Odell Beckham

Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers had surgery in October to repair his torn ACL, then had a second surgery this offseason to remove scar tissue. But the Giants still believe Nabers will be good to go for the season opener. Giants General Manager Joe Schoen said this week that Nabers should be on the field on September 13, when the Giants host the Cowboys on Sunday Night Football. “ I still think he’ll be fine Week 1 ,” Schoen told Yahoo Sports on Monday. “So we’ll see. He’s trending in the right direction. Again, these things take time, so it’s not instant. Every patient is different.” Nabers isn’t practicing yet, but new Giants offensive coordinator Matt Nagy said he’s been impressed with Nabers’ mental approach to the offseason, learning Nagy’s system quickly. “I see why he’s as good as he is,” Nagy said. Schoen noted that the Giants brought in some insurance this offseason in the form of wide receivers Darnell Mooney, Odell Beckham Jr., Calvin Austin III, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Braxton Berrios. But the Giants are optimistic that the No. 1 receiver in Week 1 will be Nabers

NY Giants mandatory minicamp, Day 2: Defense wins the day, but OBJ makes a play

Odell Beckham Jaxson Dart

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The heavy lifting of the spring is done for the New York Giants , with just a light practice remaining Wednesday morning. Head coach John Harbaugh seemed pleased on Tuesday afternoon following the conclusion of a second straight 2½-hour mandatory minicamp practice. “We got better throughout the course of the minicamp, all the way back to the first day back in the offseason program. We’ve improved dramatically,” Harbaugh said. “We have a long way to go, but now our arrow is pointed toward training camp. “So we’ll have more of a mental sweat type of practice tomorrow, and then the guys will be away until training camp. But I’m proud of the guys. They’ve done a nice job.” Odell Beckham Jr. took advantage of a busted coverage by the Giants’ secondary to haul in a long touchdown pass from Jaxson Dart , one of the highlight plays of the day for the offense. With no one near him as he caught the ball, Beckham backpedaled the final 15 yards into the end zone. For what it’s worth, rookie cornerback Colton Hood was the closest defender to Beckham. There is no way to be sure, though, if it was Hood who blew the coverage. It feels as if the Giants’ defense got the better of the offense over the course of the past two days. Again on Tuesday, the offense made a few highlight-reel plays, but the defense seemed to be the more impressive unit. Edge defender Kayvon Thibodeaux called the front “seven scary.” “We’re almost cursed with too much talent,” Thibodeaux said after Tuesday’s practice. “We have a matchup problem no matter what team we face.” Thibodeaux said he asked defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson on Tuesday if Wilson was the best defensive backs coach in the league. “I didn’t ask him that because I didn’t think it,” Thibodeaux said. “I asked him that because our DBs have been playing at a high level. And for me, I saw this same defense before. So now seeing these guys play at a pace that is, like, unbelievable, there’s no question how great of a coach he is.” Here are a few defensive highlights: Tae Banks (yes, that Tae Banks) intercepted a Brandon Allen pass down the left sideline intended for tight end Tanner Connor. Safety Elijah Campbell intercepted an off-target Allen pass intended for Xavier Gipson . For what it’s worth, Allen was a bit of an interception machine over the last two days. The defense often made the quarterbacks leave the pocket, even in 7-on-7 drills with no pass rush. How is that possible? It’s because no one was open. On one 7-on-7 play, Dart was actually forced to hold the ball and not throw it. I don’t think I have seen that before in 7-on-7. Isaiah Hodgins prevented a Rico Payton interception of Jameis Winston by diving to break up a long pass along the right sideline. Hood, working with the second-team defense, had a fantastic rep against Darnell Mooney . Dart lofted a long pass down the right sideline that Hood, reaching up with his left hand, batted away. Cornerback Greg Newsome picked off a Dart slant pass. The intended receiver is unknown. Tremaine Edmunds used his 6-foot-4 and change frame to full advantage, dropping into coverage, baiting Winston, and then reaching up with his long arms to snag an interception. It was a great example of something the Giants have been talking about — the space that Edmunds and the 6-4 Arvell Reese take up in the middle of the field. One more. The Giants did 14 reps of 7-on-7, a drill that by nature is slanted toward the offense. Dart completed just 7 of 14 during that session, including the one play where he was unable to even throw the ball. There were passes defensed by Newsome and Micah McFadden , and a dropped touchdown pass by Isaiah Likely . During these practices, the starting quarterback usually takes a few reps, then the second-and third-team quarterbacks get a bit of action. That is how Tuesday started, but as the workout lingered, Dart stayed on the field. Dart took all 14 7-on-7 reps, working with every practicing [... truncated ...]
