More about Carter\u2019s big day<\/a>]<\/p>\nBraxton Berrios \u2014 The veteran wide receiver\/return man made several catches on Wednesday. He backed that up with another productive day on Thursday. Berrios is making an early impression in the competition for one of the final roster spots.<\/p>\n
Dominic Zvada \u2014 There were no placekicking sessions in Thursday\u2019s workout. On the final play of practice, though, Zvada walked on and drilled a 57-yard field goal after the ball had been clocked by backup quarterback Brandon Allen with :01 left on the clock. Score one for the undrafted free agent in his competition with Ben Sauls.<\/p>\n
Leki Fotu \u2014 The journeyman defensive tackle had a disruptive day. Fotu had a tackle for loss and was in the backfield on a handful of other occasions.<\/p>\n
Malik Nabers \u2014 The star wide receiver was on the field for a second straight day during individual drills. Every day that Nabers practices is a win for both him and the Giants.<\/p>\n
Kayvon Thibodeaux \u2014 For the second straight day, Thibodeaux made an impact play. This time, Thibodeaux picked off a Jameis Winston pass at the line of scrimmage and took it to the house for a score. Thibodeaux has been working with the second team, but head coach John Harbaugh said he does not consider him a backup.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe knows he\u2019s going to play a bunch,\u201d Harbaugh said. \u201cWe have three starters outside the linebacker. Those are all starting football players. Slice it how you want.\u201d<\/p>\n
Giants fans \u2014 This was the first practice attended by fans, and it happened on a gorgeous, sunny, comfortable day here in West Virginia.<\/p>\n
Ben Barten \u2014 The Turk came for the undrafted free agent defensive tackle on Thursday, as he was cut and replaced on the roster by linebacker Anfernee Orji.<\/p>\n
Theo Johnson \u2014 The third-year tight end, who has had an issue with drops over his first two seasons, dropped a pass for the second straight day.<\/p>\n
Dante Miller \u2014 \u2018Turbo\u2019 fumbled after catching a short pass from Jameis Winston, with the result being a scoop-and-score for linebacker Micah McFadden.<\/p>\n
Walk-throughs? What walk-throughs?<\/p>\n
One thing we have seen is that Harbaugh doesn\u2019t believe in using a bunch of walk-through or install periods. After early special teams and individual work, the rest of practice the first two days has been full-speed 11-on-11 and 7-on-7 work. That is much more competitive and a faster pace than we have seen from the Giants in training camps during recent seasons.<\/p>\n
As media members were walking to our station in a far corner of the Greenbrier practice facility, we saw rookie Sisi Mauigoa running a lap while waving at the crowd trying to fire up the fans. After practice, I asked Andrew Thomas what that was about.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat was rookie duties,\u201d Thomas said. \u201cWe made him go run around and fight the crowd. He did a good job.<\/p>\n
\u201cProbably made him some money, too. Probably about 10,000 Twitter followers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Can Nabers be as good or better after his knee injury than he was in 2024?<\/p>\n
\u201cI got extreme confidence in myself,\u201d Nabers said. \u201cI\u2019m not going to put myself in any spot that I feel like I\u2019m not going to be better than what I was before. So, I don\u2019t see myself being what I was before. What I was before, what you all saw my rookie year, I felt like that was basic. I got high standards for myself. I know everybody has high standards for me also. But the standard that I hold myself to is very high. I feel like whatever that standard that I hold myself to, you\u2019ll see or sooner or later.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Giants\u2019 co-owner, who has been fighting a battle with cancer, made the trip to The Greenbrier.<\/p>\n
