Giants News - Will Giants Make a Move for Cousins? & NFL Week 13 Recap

In this episode of *2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates*, Drew and Rob dive into some of the hottest topics surrounding the Giants and the NFL at large. The show opens with a discussion about a potential trade target for the Giants: Kirk Cousins. ESPN analysts Dan Graziano and Jeremy Fowler have speculated on Cousins’ future with the Atlanta Falcons, especially after a rocky season that includes a recent four-interception game against the Chargers. Despite flashes of brilliance earlier this year, Cousins’ inconsistency has raised questions about his long-term fit in Atlanta. Could Cousins waive his no-trade clause to join the Giants if the team sees him as a solution? Drew and Rob analyze Cousins’ hefty contract implications, his potential impact, and whether his presence could help turn the Giants’ fortunes around.

Next, the focus shifts to the Giants' latest roster move: signing defensive lineman Cory Durden off the Rams' practice squad. At 6’4” and 316 pounds, the 25-year-old Durden brings raw power and solid technique but has yet to make a significant impact at the NFL level. Drew and Rob discuss what this signing means for the Giants’ defensive line depth and how Durden might fit into Wink Martindale’s system.

The show also takes a broader look at the NFL’s evolving relationship with running backs. Star players like Josh Jacobs, Derrick Henry, and Saquon Barkley have transformed their new teams into contenders while their former squads flounder. Despite these trends, Drew and Rob examine whether the performance of these teams truly indicates a resurgence of the running back's importance or if it’s merely a reflection of pre-existing team strengths.

One of the most intriguing segments revolves around Daniel Jones. Reports from Mike Florio suggest that the Giants asked Jones to stay home, reminiscent of the Derek Carr situation with the Raiders. While Jones ultimately refused, the situation laid the groundwork for him requesting his release. Drew and Rob break down the financial and football implications of sidelining Jones and how this decision could impact the quarterback’s future with the team.

The episode wraps up with a recap of Week 13’s Sunday games, highlighting some thrilling finishes and surprising upsets. From the Texans' nail-biting victory over the Jaguars to the Eagles outlasting the Ravens in a clash of NFC and AFC heavyweights, the guys provide their unique perspective on all the action. They also discuss the 49ers’ shocking blowout loss to the Bills on Sunday Night Football, a game that could have major playoff implications.

This jam-packed episode has everything Giants fans need to stay informed, from potential trades to roster moves and league-wide storylines. Don’t miss Drew and Rob’s insightful takes and entertaining banter on the latest edition of *2 Giants Goofballs*.
