New York Giants
There are few jobs in sports that come with brighter lights or more pressure than being the quarterback of the New York Giants.
Regardless of the sport, the New York media market is a fishbowl, complete with a ravenous — and occasionally rabid — press and passionate fanbases. There really aren’t any sights grander than a ticker tape parade through the Canyon Of Heroes, nor are there many tougher spots if a player or coach finds themselves on the wrong side of the fans and media.
That’s the environment in which Jaxson Dart finds himself after the Giants traded up...

New York Giants rookies, including No. 3 overall pick Abdul Carter and No. 25 overall pick Jaxson Dart, will get their first taste of NFL action against another team on Saturday when the Giants open their preseason against the Buffalo Bills.
Carter, the edge defender who has drawn raves from teammates throughout training camp, is “excited” for game action. Even if it doesn’t count.
“My last game was, shoot, six months ago, something like that,” Carter said. “So, it’s cool to come out here, get a routine down, play football again. I’m excited.”
Carter isn’t going to hold back, even...

Bread-and-butter home, work, and family leagues powered the initial fantasy football explosion.

The New York Giants moved quickly to release veteran linebacker Ty Summers from injured reserve with an injury settlement, doing so just days after replacing Summers on the 90-man roster with linebacker K.J. Cloyd.
Summers, a six-year veteran, has been a reserve linebacker and special teams player throughout his career. Summers played in 16 games with two starts for the Giants last season, registering 29 tackles.
Summers apparently had a groin injury.
An injury settlement generally consists of a team paying a player’s salary for however many weeks the player is expected to be sidelined. That amount counts against the...

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll has yet to indicate whether or not starters will play in Saturday’s preseason opener against the Buffalo Bills. Veteran players asked about that this week have indicated a willingnesss, if not a desire to play.
“I think it’s valuable for anybody no matter how long you’ve played,” said seventh-year wide receiver Darius Slayton. “No matter how you look at it, it’s been a long time since you’ve been live tackled.It’s been a long time since, you know, you’ve seen somebody that wears a different color than you. Preseason reps are really valuable regardless...

There was a brief sense of alarm when New York Giants star wide receiver Malik Nabers went to the sideline during Wednesday’s practice and did not return.
After practice, though, Nabers said there was nothing to be worried about. His lightened workload was “part of the plan” of “making sure I’m as healthy as I need to be when it’s time to play ball.”
Nabers, of course, missed spring practices as he rehabbed a toe injury. He left a practice last week with a shoulder injury, but has shown no ill effects from that.
Nabers said he is “doing fine”...

Despite the New York Giants fielding one of the absolute worst offenses in the NFL over the last two seasons, it was the defensive side of the ball that got the biggest injection of talent this past offseason.
The Giants’ inability to stop opponents when it mattered rankled John Mara enough that it got a specific call-out, despite the looming mess at the quarterback position. And so the Giants added two of the top free agent veterans in Jevon Holland and Paulson Adebo, as well as selecting two of the 2025 draft’s best pass rushers (at their respective positions) in...

The New York Giants will be back to practice on Wednesday following an off day on Tuesday. It is still training camp, even though there will be no fans in attendance. The Giants, though, will practice with an eye toward Saturday’s preseason opener against the Buffalo Bills.
Add newly signed veteran RB Jonathan Ward to the list of potentially injured players to watch. He went inside as well.
The Giants have an injury situation to watch as backup left tackle James Hudson III went inside with trainers. Brian Burns also reportedly appeared to limp, but continued to...

It has been a long, winding, and often disappointing, road with the New York for Darius Slayton since he joined the team in 2019.
A fifth-round pick in that 2019 NFL Draft, Slayton has had to earn the respect of three different head coaches. He has had productive seasons and poor ones. He has dealt with far too much losing. He had to take a pay cut to stay with the team a couple of years ago.
Still, with an opportunity to go elsewhere in free agency this past offseason, Slayton chose to return to the Giants for a seventh...
