Giants practice with more intensive protocols

Logan Ryan has played in 131 NFL regular-season and postseason games, which means he has participated in many hundreds of practices. But today the eight-year veteran experienced a practice first – he wore a mask.

"(It was) not too comfortable, but this is 2020," Ryan said in a post-practice Zoom call. "A lot of things we have to adjust for, a lot of curveballs. I'm not complaining, got the best job in the world. I got used to it pretty quickly."

Giants players were required to wear masks as part of the more intensive protocols mandated by the NFL after guard Will Hernandez was today placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. The Giants practiced in a downpour as they began preparing for their game Monday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The new protocols include a mandate that meetings must be conducted virtually unless they are in an area large enough to allow social distancing.

The Giants, like all teams, are used to such requirements and are unfazed by them.

"So far, everything has been normal," Ryan said. "Practiced out there on the field, meeting as normal. How we have to adjust is just what the NFL protocols will be. I wasn't here in the spring, but I am familiar with the Zoom app, I am a millennial. I'll turn it on and make sure my kids aren't doing backflips. I'll have to mute myself a little bit. I'll be super locked in. It's important, it's a big game. It's Tom Brady and the crew coming to town. I'll definitely be in the meetings, prepared and ready to go."
