DJ organized an off-season workout in NC, taking several teammates with him for both training and bonding. Joining Jones were quarterbacks Drew Lock and Tommy DeVito, wide receivers Slayton, Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson, Hyatt, Ford-Wheaton, and Dennis Houston, tight ends Bellinger, Theo Johnson, and Lawrence Cager, and running back Dante Miller. Beyond their football drills, the group engaged in team-building activities, including jet skiing, a moment captured and shared on Twitter. This workout tradition dates back to 2011 when Eli Manning initiated it, bridging the gap between OTAs and training camp.
Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers didn't shy away from calling out Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs during a Bleacher Report interview, saying he can't wait to match up against him. Diggs responded on Twitter, referencing the Cowboys' dominance over the Giants with a taunting message. Nabers retorted with a coffin emoji, intensifying the rivalry. The Giants face the Cowboys in weeks 4 and 13 this season. While Diggs is recovering from an ACL tear, Daron Bland has emerged as a strong contender for the Cowboys' top cornerback spot. The burgeoning rivalry echoes sentiments expressed by last year's Giants first-round pick Deonte Banks, who vocally celebrated victories over the Commanders.
The "Hard Knocks" trailer featuring the New York Giants offered some intriguing insights. Giants GM Joe Schoen was seen discussing Saquon Barkley's contract situation, stating, "Can you give us your word on that or are you not going to give us a chance?"

The trailer also captured Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll deliberating a trade for Brian Burns, with Schoen noting the high cost: "We would have to trade, like, two twos, and then you’d have to pay him $28-$29 million." Ultimately, the Giants acquired Burns for a second-round pick, a fifth-round pick, and a swap of fifth-round picks. The trailer hinted at the Falcons' interest in trading down, sparking curiosity about what the Giants might have gained if they had traded the sixth pick.
The Giants have opened their first training camp session to the public on July 24, continuing through multiple dates in late July and early August. Joint practices with the Lions on August 5 and 6 will also be accessible. Fans can look forward to giveaways, autographs, and various activities. While attendance is free, tickets are required and will be available soon on the Giants' official website.
With Darren Waller’s retirement, tight ends Lawrence Cager and rookie Theo Johnson have stepped up. ESPN’s Jordan Raanan reported that both players received first-team reps during spring practices. Head coach Brian Daboll praised Cager, calling him “probably one of the most improved players throughout the offseason.” Cager's increased speed and understanding of the system have been highlighted, suggesting he could play a significant role this season.
Pro Football Focus ranked the Giants' defensive line 18th in the NFL. Dexter Lawrence's dominant pass-rushing skills set him apart as a unique nose tackle. The addition of Brian Burns in the offseason bolsters the Gian
