New York Giants
After a sluggish showing on the first day of training camp on Wednesday, the New York Giants offense turned things around at Thursday’s practice.
Big Blue got a solid preview of what first-round pick Malik Nabers will be bringing to the table this season and beyond. The former LSU standout strutted his stuff with a total of three touchdown catches from quarterback Daniel Jones, who also looked much sharper.

Head coach is “addicted” to Pilates
New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen spilled the beans Thursday on something not even ‘Hard Knocks’ could uncover. Head coach Brian Daboll’s secret weight loss weapon this offseason.
Pilates.
“What he fell in love with probably over the last three or four weeks is Pilates,” Schoen told Kay Adams during an appearance on ‘Up & Adams.’ “He’s doing Pilates. The first week and a half he was dying. He could barely move, but now after sticking with it for a couple weeks he’s addicted.”
Daboll’s considerable weight loss from the end of the...

Creativity on display so far with offense
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The New York Giants completed their second day of training camp on Thursday at Quest Diagnostics Training Center. Here are some of the takeaways.
Offensive lineman Jermaine Eluemunor escaped major injury after Wednesday’s collision with 340-pound defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence.
Eluemunor was in uniform Thursday and participated in walk-thru portions of practice. Josh Ezeudu took first-team right tackle reps during 11-on-11 work.
“I’m OK. Little banged up, but that’s the name of the game playing offensive line,” Eluemunor said, adding that it’s “not fun....

Offensive lineman has bruised ribs, should be back in team drills soon
Jermaine Eluemunor took the kind of shot from Dexter Lawrence on Monday that no one wants to take, a hit to the ribs during an unpadded practice that left him crumpled to the ground.
It also left the Giants, who invested heavily in Eluemunor as part of their offensive line reconstruction, and their fans holding their breath.
The veteran offensive lineman, though, is fine—no broken ribs.
“It’s just really bad bruising,” Eluemunor said. “It’s nothing that should keep me out too long.”
Eluemunor participated in walk-through portions of...

Who are the top 25 NFL players of the 21st century? That’s a question that ESPN recently set out to answer and as fate would have it, one retired member of the New York Giants made the cut.
Although he ranked a bit lower than many in Giants Nation would have thought, defensive end and Pro Football Hall of Famer, Michael Strahan, checked in at No. 19.
Key accomplishments: HOF (2014), seven-time Pro Bowler, two-time first-team All-Pro in the 2000s, 2001 Defensive POY, 22.5 sacks in 2001 (tied for single-season record)
*Strahan is still a shareholder of...

Giants’ assistant GM offers more detail on how the Giants decided to select LSU wide receiver
J.J. McCarthy, and by extension Michael Penix and Bo Nix, were not serious considerations for the New York Giants at No. 6 in the 2024 NFL Draft. Assistant GM Brandon Brown confirmed that and explained why on this week’s ‘Official Hard Knocks Podcast’ with Peter Schrager.
“We took all the quarterbacks through the whole gauntlet ad nauseum,” Brown told Schrager. “When we got down to it, there was a separation in terms of how we onboard them, what the return may be early on,...

In the final week of the 2021 regular season, the New York Giants closed out an ugly campaign with a 22-7 loss to the Washington Commanders.
That game was the last for head coach Joe Judge, who was fired shortly thereafter.
The final nail in the coffin likely came during the second quarter when, trailing 3-0, Judge called back-to-back quarterback sneaks from inside the five-yard line.
“I wasn’t going to live through what happened last week in Chicago,” Judge told reporters after the game, referring to a Week 17 safety. “We’re going to give ourselves room for the punt. We...

New York Giants news for Thursday
Good morning, New York Giants fans!

The New York Giants’ secondary is a youthful group. Bringing in Jalen Mills added some experience to their ranks, but defensive coordinator Shane Bowen has another idea.
As we discovered early in Hard Knocks, Bowen is giving linebacker Isaiah Simmons an expanded role.
Before joining the Giants in 2023, Simmons played under Vance Joseph in Arizona. The role Bowen has in mind for Simmons is similar to what Joseph did in 2021, and the veteran responded well to the task recording 105 tackles, one interception, four forced fumbles, and 1.5 sacks that season.
“I think it does give me more...

When the New York Giants selected wide receiver Malik Nabers in the 2024 NFL draft, he filled a need for a feature weapon on the offense.
There are extremely high expectations around the Giants’ new top target, especially considering he may have very well been the team’s top wide receiver choice as we learned on HBO’s Hard Knocks.
Recently, Nabers was named to CBS Sports’ All-Preseason Rookie Team along with Cardinals’ top choice Marvin Harrison Jr., as the two perimeter receivers:
*Nabers was my WR1 in the 2024 class, so he gets the first nod here. I have minimal...

The New York Giants conducted the first practice of their 2024 training camp on Wednesday. The offense, which hasn’t played together as a whole since early last season, was sluggish, to say the least.
Few were surprised that quarterback Daniel Jones, playing in 11-on-11’s for the first time this year, was a bit rusty behind his newly rebuilt offensive line and surrounded by several new receivers and running backs.
But Jones is not to be deterred. He’s keeping things light and is brimming with optimism.
“I’m confident in this group, confident in where we can be. I think we’ve added...
