Bleav in Giants

Bob Papa reporting from Giants training camp and Carl Banks, who just left Greenbrier, go through what they have seen this week. The biggest thing is that under John Harbaugh, practices are faster, more detailed, and far more situational. They believe the Giants are building discipline, conditioning, and accountability that should translate directly to Sundays, with players like Deonte Banks and Arvell Reese emerging as early standouts while Jaxson Dart continues to progress within a physical, run-oriented offense.
