Three players could be cut from the team
With a new offensive approach in mind, the New York Giants are optimistically preparing for the 2024 campaign and have made some major squad changes. Malik Nabers’s arrival, following Saquon Barkley’s trade to the Philadelphia Eagles, signals a significant change in strategy and points to a movement toward a pass-heavy attack. By increasing the quantity of passing attempts, this tactic will highlight the quarterback’s ability to complete plays out of the pocket more. Daniel Jones is the center of attention as he recovers from ACL surgery. Jones will have to make a big financial choice for the Giants this season, and he only has one more season to prove his worth.
Some players are in danger of losing their spots on the team, even though he has secured his berth for the current campaign.
Giants’ Roster Wars: Who Gets in and Who Gets Cut?
DeVito Tommy: Tommy DeVito, an Illinois native in his second year of play, is positioned behind Daniel Jones and Drew Lock and has a difficult task ahead of him. Even though DeVito finished his debut season with 1,101 passing yards, 8 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions, his future with the Giants is still uncertain. Even though the Giants are interested in developing him, it seems unlikely that they will carry three quarterbacks into the regular season, thus he might end up back on the practice squad.
Gary Brightwell: Under former head coach Joe Judge, Gary Brightwell was selected in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He has only had a few opportunities, totaling just 42 rush attempts for 173 yards and one touchdown. Despite his contributions on special teams, his status is in threat due to the arrival of Tyrone Tracy and Eric Gray to the squad. To guarantee his place, Brightwell will need to put up an exceptional show this summer.
Ron Robinson: Since his promising first season in 2021, Aaron Robinson has battled injuries, and his future is uncertain. Due to his protracted recuperation times, he is currently approaching his fourth season and remains mostly unknown. The Giants may choose to dismiss him unless he can demonstrate his effectiveness and fitness in the coming months. These players will have to prove their value and flexibility in order to guarantee their spots for the upcoming season as the Giants reassess their roster and modify their offensive playbook.
