The New York Giants are hoping to turn around the direction of their franchise. Six of their last seven seasons have resulted in a losing record. Their decision to pay Daniel Jones came under a ton of scrutiny. Many question if he is capable of being a franchise quarterback.
The goal to prove that he is just got a little tougher.
New York Giants Release Statement On Injured Player
According to Michael Overmuller:
After practice, The Athletic’s NYG beat reporter Dan Duggan noted that five Giants players left practice with injury on Friday. They were wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie, wide receiver Bryce Ford-Wheaton, tight end Jack Stoll, offensive lineman Joshua Ezeudu and defensive lineman D.J. Davidson.
Of the five, only two of the injuries are known to the media at this time. McKenzie suffered a “hip/back” issue that looked to cause “serious pain” — per New York Daily News reporter Pat Leonard — as Stoll left because of his “knee.”
Despite the mysterious nature of it, perhaps the most concerning injury was to Ezeudu. According to The Athletic’s Charlotte Carroll, the former third-round blocker was “carted off” the sidelines after getting pulled from the field.
“Didn’t see what happened but he was down as cart came out for him,” Carroll elaborated. “[Ezeudu] wasn’t in jersey at that point.”
The “Talkin’ Giants” podcast was also live at the scene as they have been all summer. Their X account added that they “saw [Ezeudu] limping off the field during team drills” before the cart eventually came and got him.
The Giants’ offensive line will need to play well in order to be competitive this year. New York was the most sacked team in the entire league in 2023, allowing 85.
Getting Daniel Jones protection has been their top priority this off-season.
