Abdul Carter Raises the Pressure at Giants Camp

Abdul Carter’s dominant second practice gave the Giants another potential difference-maker, but it also raised questions about an offense that struggled once the defense increased the pressure.

Is Abdul Carter already becoming the breakout star of Giants training camp? His performance against Andrew Thomas is a legitimate early signal, but two unpadded practices are not enough to declare the transformation complete.
Drew and Rob cut through the usual training-camp hype and examine what actually happened during the Giants’ first two practices at The Greenbrier.
Day 1 produced the stronger offensive performance. Jaxson Dart completed plenty of throws while adjusting to more work from under center, different footwork and new pocket landmarks. The operation looked encouraging, but several risky passes could have become interceptions if the defense had finished its opportunities.
Braxton Berrios became the surprise standout of the opening practice with five reported catches during team periods, including a long touchdown from Jameis Winston. Malachi Fields continued making contested catches, Chris Manhertz contributed more as a receiver than expected and Darius Slayton appeared to be moving well following offseason surgery.
Malik Nabers completed controlled individual work on consecutive days. His ability to run, cut and plant without an obvious setback is encouraging, but the Giants have not yet returned him to unrestricted competitive team periods.
Day 2 belonged to the defense. Carter repeatedly reached the backfield while working against Thomas, produced multiple would-be sacks and deflected a screen. The matchup becomes more meaningful because Carter was creating problems for the Giants’ best offensive lineman—not simply beating a reserve.
Kayvon Thibodeaux also answered the pressure surrounding the Giants’ crowded edge-rusher room. After batting down a pass during the opening practice, he intercepted Winston and returned it for a touchdown on Day 2.
The episode also covers Cam Skattebo’s healthy return to team drills, the developing competition with Tyrone Tracy Jr., Tae Banks’ early pass breakups and the kicking battle between Ben Sauls and Dominic Zvada.
The first two practices did not settle any depth-chart decisions, but they gave Giants fans several real developments to follow once the pads come on.
