“When I look back on everything, it’s really special to come to a place where a coach genuinely cares about you and...

Dexter Lawrence, the New York Giants All-Pro defensive tackle, “has a chance” to play on Monday against the New England Patriots despite missing another practice on Friday due to his elbow injury. That was interim head coach Mike Kafka’s assessment.
Lawrence missed the last five games of the 2024 season due to a dislocated elbow. His current injury involves the same elbow. He played just 36 snaps, his second-lowest total of the season, Sunday against the Detroit Lions.
Lawrence could be one of several starting defenders out of the lineup Monday when Charlie Bullen debuts as the team’s interim defensive...

Since the New York Giants turned to Charlie Bullen earlier this week to replace fired defensive coordinator Shane Bowen for the rest of the season, the question everyone has is “what does a Charlie Bullen defense look like?”
Bullen wasn’t giving away any secrets when he met the media on Friday for the first time since becoming interim defensive coordinator.
“It’s a player-driven league, there’s no doubt and coming from my perspective, coming from my position room where there’s three first rounders, I understand fully that it’s a talent-driven league and a player-driven league,” Bullen said. “So to me, as...

The New York Giants get to finish off Week 13 by traveling to Foxboro, Mass. to take on the New England Patriots on Monday night
These two teams are familiar foes with just about as much history as two teams in different conferences can have. Of course, these aren’t the Eli Manning Giants, nor do they face the Tom Brady Patriots. And at face value, it would look like the 2-10 Giants and 10-2 Patriots are two teams heading in different directions.
However, the Giants are “only” 7.5-point underdogs on the road. That’s likely a reaction to the fact that...

Bullen now gets a primetime stage — Monday Night Football — to deliver something the Giants have desperately needed during this six-game losing streak: a statement! The Giants’ defense has become synonymous with predictability, comical collapses, and they’ve seemingly developed an allergy to winning. However, New York...
