Secondary
Up and down, inside and out, the interceptions came from all over the depth chart on Tuesday. Safeties Cooper Taylor and Nat Berhe, whom safeties coach David Merritt praised earlier in the day, grabbed the first two of a three-interception day for the secondary. Taylor jumped in front of a Ryan Nassib pass for tight end Larry Donnell, and a few plays later, the rookie Berhe snagged one off Curtis Painter intended for tight end Adrien Robinson. Later on, cornerback Trumaine McBride intercepted Nassib to complete the trio of picks. Cornerback Walter Thurmond III almost made it four but couldn't quite hold onto it. That cost him 10 pushups.**[

While the defense had its fun, the second-year tight end made the offensive play of the day. Donnell used all of his athleticism and a 6-6, 265-pound frame to haul in a Curtis Painter pass as he backpedaled through traffic and fell to the turf. Earlier in 7-on-7 drills, Donnell made another leaping catch from Ryan Nassib, leading a productive day for his position group.>> BEST OF: TE LARRY DONNELL PHOTOSCB Charles James
Any time you have a practice that produces three interceptions with a handful of nice catches and a special teams gunner sticks out, you know he's doing something right. That was the case on Tuesday with Charles James. He's made his share of plays on defense, but he's still doing what got him on the 53-man roster last year as an undrafted rookie out of Charleston Southern. And that's flying around on special teams. On back-to-back punts, he exploded off the line of scrimmage and was the first man down the field both times to thwart any chance for the returner.>> WATCH: A GIANTS LIFESPECIAL NOTE
