Roster moves: Giants elevate, PK, LB for Sunday’s game vs. Saints

The New York Giants are elevating placekicker Jude McAtamney and linebacker Neville Hewitt from their practice squad for Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints.

This is the second straight elevation for McAtamney, who made two short field goals and an extra point last week in place injured kicker Graham Gano, who is on IR. The Giants also have veteran placekicker Younghoe Koo on their practice squad.

This is the third and final elevation for Hewitt. The Giants will have to add him to their 53-man roster after this week if they want to have him available on game days....

Power Mock 2.0 – Are the Giants’ prospects about to change?

Power Mock 2.0 – Are the Giants’ prospects about to change?

It’s the first week of the month (October, if you hadn’t noticed), which means that it’s once time for our monthly Power Mock.

The New York Giants have risen in the power rankings following their near wins over the Dallas Cowboys and Kansas City Chiefs — which were followed by their upset win over the Los Angeles Chargers. That said, the Giants haven’t risen all that far in the rankings, and their team needs haven’t shifted that much — though the injury to Malik Nabers could either reveal a desperate need at receiver or surprising depth.

As always, the Power...

2025 College football: Draft prospects for the Giants in Week 6

Good morning New York Giants fans! Happy Saturday and welcome to Week 6 of the 2025 college football season.

We have an interesting slate of games on offer this week, and are taking the opportunity to check in on some powerhouse schools who’ve fallen off this year, some surprising teams in the ACC, as well as a couple schools who haven’t gotten much attention but have some very intriguing prospects.

College football has already been incredibly chaotic this year, with top schools losing to unranked opponents, while overlooked programs are in contention for the College Football Playoffs.

I can’t wait...

Ex-Saints CB has a warning for his Giants teammates

Ex-Saints CB has a warning for his Giants teammates

Paulson Adebo returns to New Orleans this weekend, where he played the first four years of his career, with a warning for his New York Giants defensive teammates. Do not take Saints’ quarterback Spencer Rattler lightly.

Rattler, a fifth-round pick by New Orleans a season ago, is 0-10 as the Saints’ starting quarterback. That doesn’t matter to Adebo, who watched him all of last season.

“He’s a good quarterback. I think going into his second year, he looks a little bit more comfortable,” Adebo said. “Great arm talent, I mean, can make all the throws. I think just kind of...

Big Blue View mailbag: Evan Neal, red zone, replacing Malik Nabers, more

*Gregory Kolton asks: I was at the game on Sunday and my son and I were so happy to finally see a Giants win, but I thought the vast majority of the play calling was very uncreative (even for a rookie QB’s first game). Now that Nabers is out for the season (so bummed), I think Daboll and Kafka need to think differently. For instance, if Hyatt is not being used in the passing game, maybe the Giants could use him in a Cordarrelle Patterson-like role in the running game. He’s fast, he bulked up over the summer, and no...

Andrew Thomas feeling strong after return, focused on Saints

Andrew Thomas feeling strong after return, focused on Saints

New York Giants left tackle Andrew Thomas is back on the field and feeling good.

After missing nearly all of last season due to a Lisfranc injury that required surgery, Thomas started his second straight game in Sunday’s win over the Los Angeles Chargers, playing all 76 snaps. He admitted there was some “normal soreness” after the game but emphasized that his conditioning, not his health, was the bigger adjustment.

“If anything, my lungs were more tired than anything,” Thomas said. “It was a good game. We got the win, so I’ll just keep building on that.”

Thomas said he...

Survey results: Giants fans give Jaxson Dart’s debut an above-average grade

Survey results: Giants fans give Jaxson Dart’s debut an above-average grade

It’s only been one game, but so far New York Giants fans are happy with rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart.

The Giants made the decision to turn the keys to the offense over to Dart earlier than expected, with the making the move in advance of their Week 4 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. At the time, the Giants were 0-3 and preparing to go against a 3-0 team boasting one of the best defenses in the NFL.

Unsurprisingly, Dart was widely expected to struggle. And yet, the rookie didn’t struggle, nor did he panic or look overwhelmed.

Dart didn’t...

Giants-Saints final injury report: Dexter Lawrence (illness) still not practicing

Giants-Saints final injury report: Dexter Lawrence (illness) still not practicing

New York Giants star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence was held out of practice for a third straight day on Friday due to illness. Giants head coach Brian Daboll, though, expects Lawrence to be available Sunday when the Giants face the New Orleans Saints.

“I think he’s kind of getting over it right now,” Daboll said. We won’t practice him today, but he’s done a little bit inside with the trainers. We’re going to bring him out here. He should be good to go.“

That’s good news for a Giants team seeking a second straight victory. Lawrence is their best defensive...

Jalin Hyatt, Beaux Collins have huge, if unfortunate, opportunities

Malik Nabers, the New York Giants’ most explosive play-maker on offense, is gone for the remainder of the season with a torn ACL. He is, as quarterback Jaxson Dart has said, “one of one.” The Giants cannot and will not be able to conjure up a player who can do all of the things for them that Nabers could do.

They still, though, have 13 games to play. They have to find the best ways they can to run good offense and give rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart a chance to develop and succeed. Someone has to fill Nabers’ spot in...
