Daniel Jones Impresses at Giants Camp

In the latest training camp session for the New York Giants, quarterback Daniel Jones showcased his accuracy during 11-on-11 drills, completing the majority of his passes with only three falling incomplete. Notably, one of the incompletions was a batted ball by defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence, while another was a drop by rookie receiver Jalin Hyatt. Jones also demonstrated his deep passing ability, connecting with Darius Slayton on a significant crossing route. On the defensive side, cornerback Deonte Banks faced challenges, particularly when he was beaten by Slayton on a go route early in practice. This performance highlights the ongoing competition within the Giants' secondary as players vie for starting positions. Running back Eric Gray made a strong impression, breaking through the secondary multiple times and notably scoring a 48-yard touchdown during the preseason opener. His performance could lead to an increased role, especially with rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr. suffering an ankle injury that forced him to be carted off the field, although initial reports suggest the injury may not be serious. Injury updates revealed that tight end Lawrence Cager is likely to be sidelined for an extended period due to a groin issue. However, offensive linemen Evan Neal and John Michael Schmitz returned to practice, while several players, including Malik Nabers and Drew Lock, were unable to participate due to various injuries. Coach Brian Daboll continues to monitor the situation as the team prepares for the upcoming season.
