Monday, August 10

4:15 p.m. -- C Bryan Hudson has "done really well" while filling in for C John Michael Schmitz, who is dealing with a concussion, according to John Harbaugh. "He's working through that process," the head coach said. "He was good today, so he's in a good place." On Hudson: "You know, it's funny because we did feel like we needed to get him in there, even with the twos, and then now with the ones, and he's risen to the occasion so far."

Harbaugh gave a few other updates following practice. OLB Abdul Carter "had a hand issue, finger issue. Same one he's been dealing with. He's fine." Will he be out there at Tuesday's practice? "Probably. We've got to work on the orthotics a little bit."

WR JuJu Smith-Schuster is "working on his knee. He's older, he's got an older knee. So, that's going to be – got to manage that for JuJu, we knew that." CB Greg Newsome II is "going to be fine." On OL Lucas Patrick: "Another old knee, so we're going to just have to see how that goes. He's going to get some PRP and see if it helps."

1 p.m. -- Upon returning from West Virginia, the Giants signed DB JT Woods and released DL Sam Roberts.

Woods was a third-round pick (No. 79 overall) in the 2022 NFL Draft. The 6-foot-2, 193-pound safety played in 13 total games with one start for the Los Angeles Chargers across the 2022 and 2023 campaigns. He totaled eight tackles (seven solo) and also spent time on special teams.

The young defensive back then went on spend time with the Philadelphia Eagles, Chicago Bears, Seattle Seahawks, Las Vegas Raiders, and New York Jets over the last two seasons.

Prior to being drafted, Woods spent four years at Baylor where he played in 50 games with 28 starts. As a senior in 2021, he led the Big 12 with six interceptions and finished fourth on the team with 57 total tackles. He was voted All-Big 12 Honorable Mention by the league's coaches.

He finished his collegiate career with 157 total tackles (113 solo), one sack, seven tackles for loss, nine interceptions, 14 pass breakups, four fumble recoveries and two defensive touchdowns.

Roberts signed with the Giants in March and began training camp on the physically unable to perform list.

Saturday, August 8

11 a.m. -- The Giants have signed OL Brenden Jaimes.

Originally a fifth-round pick (No. 159 overall) in the 2021 NFL Draft, Jaimes has played in 50 games with three starts over the last five seasons.

The 6-foot-5, 300-pound lineman played his first four years with the Los Angeles Chargers. Upon hitting free agency, Jaimes signed with the Tennessee Titans during the 2025 offseason before being released as part of final roster cuts in late August. He then signed to the New England Patriots practice squad, where he spent most of the season.

A majority of Jaimes' NFL snaps have come at center, although the 27-year-old does have experience playing elsewhere on the offensive line.

During his four seasons at Nebraska, Jaimes played all of his games at tackle. He began his collegiate career on the right side, where he started the final nine games of his true freshman campaign at right tackle. His nine starts set a Nebraska record for the most by a true freshman offensive lineman.

The following year, he moved over to left tackle and made every start for the Cornhuskers, earning honorable-mention All-Big Ten honors. He once again started all 12 games at left tackle as a junior and was named Nebraska's Offensive MVP after helping the offense rank third in the Big Ten in rushing and fifth in total offense. He also earned honorable-mention All-Big Ten for the second straight year.

Jaimes' collegiate career wrapped up with another seven starts at left tackle in 2020. This extended his streak to 40 consecutive starts overall, which set a new Nebraska record for consecutive starts by an offensive lineman. His 40 career starts rank second all-time among all offensive lineman in Nebraska history. He earned honorable-mention All-Big Ten honors for the third straight year.

Friday, August 7

5:30 p.m. -- The Giants waived/injury CB Jarrick Bernard-Converse, who played five games for them in 2025 after he was claimed off waivers from the Browns midway through the season.

4 p.m. -- Speaking after practice No. 9, coach John Harbaugh said C John Michael Schmitz "got his bell rung, so we'll see." RB Cam Skattebo is "probably working through the football shape part of it. He's coming off of rehab, so that's what that was. It won't be a serious injury at all." OLB Brian Burns, meanwhile, is "just working through his ankle, he's fine."

Thursday, August 6

1:30 p.m. -- The Giants signed FB Grant Finley and waived TE Tyler Moore.

Finley spent four seasons at Missouri Western where he played primarily on the defensive line with some time at fullback. He was named third-team All-MIAA in 2024 after starting all 11 games and totaling 29 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss, and a team-high five sacks to go with one forced fumble, one fumble recovery and a pass breakup.

He followed that up this past season with 21 combined tackles (nine solo), six tackles for loss totaling 33 yards, two sacks, one fumble recovery and five pass breakups, in addition to one blocked kick on special teams. This earned him second-team All-MIAA honors.

Finley measured in at 6-foot-4, 281 pounds at the Missouri Western Pro Day, where he worked out at both defensive tackle and fullback. He ran a 4.88 40-yard dash with a 32.5-inch vertical and a 9-feet, 11-inch broad jump.

His 9.60 Relative Athletic Score, out of a possible 10.0, ranked 92 out of 2,270 defensive tackle prospects from 1987 to 2026, according to RAS Football.

Finley participated in the Giants' rookie minicamp back in May.

The Giants signed Moore, an undrafted free agent, right before the start of training camp last week.

Wednesday, August 5

4 p.m. -- WR Odell Beckham Jr. had an active practice as he continues his return to the Giants. "I think it's just normal, ebb and flow," coach John Harbaugh said after practice. "He's working hard and he got some balls that came his way and he made some great plays. He addressed the team, maybe it was that. He addressed the team yesterday morning. We do a 'wise words' to start our meetings in the morning and he was up and he did a great job with that. So, maybe that was the football gods right there."

WR Dalen Cambre, a second-year pro, has caught the attention of his new head coach as the wide receiver competition heats up. "I see him make a circus catch every single day," Harbaugh said. "And not just that, he's doing all the other things. He's doing special teams. He knows what he's doing. He's running great routes. I think he's making a move. I think he's done a great job and he's got our attention."

OLB Brian Burns, CB Dru Phillips, S Beau Brade, and rookie WR Malachi Fields are dealing with "minor" things and "you'll see all those guys back soon," according to Harbaugh.

1:30 p.m. -- The Giants added to their defensive backs group with the signings of CB David Long and CB D.J. James. In corresponding moves, DL Roy Robertson-Harris was placed on injured reserve and WR Beaux Collins was waived/injured.

Long has played in 80 games (12 starts) since entering the NFL in 2019. The 5-foot-11, 196-pound cornerback was originally a third-round pick (No. 79 overall) of the Los Angeles Rams in 2019. Long spent his first four seasons with the Rams, where he played in 52 games with 10 starts and totaled one interception, seven passes defensed, and 77 total tackles (67 solo). During the Rams' Super Bowl LVI run, Long returned an interception for a touchdown in the team's Wild Card victory over the Cardinals.

He then went on to spend the following three seasons with the Las Vegas Raiders (2023), Carolina Panthers (2023), Green Bay Packers (2023), Indianapolis Colts (2024) and a second stint with the Panthers (2025). Additionally, Long spent the 2024 offseason with the Giants before being waived during final roster cuts. His career totals include 96 tackles (82 solo), one interception and eight passes defensed.

Prior to being drafted, Long spent three seasons at Michigan (2016-2018). He was named first-team All-Big Ten by the conference's coaches and second-team All-Big Ten by the Associated Press after breaking up nine passes with one interception in his final season. He also earned the first ever Defensive Skill Player of the Year Award from Michigan. During his time with the Wolverines, Long played under Jim Harbaugh, the younger brother of Giants head coach John Harbaugh.

Originally a sixth-round pick (No. 192 overall) of the Seattle Seahawks in 2024, James was waived as part of the final roster cuts at the end of training camp. He then signed to the Patriots' practice squad and was with New England for the 2024 and 2025 seasons. During that time, he played in one game and registered one solo tackle.

James began his collegiate career at Oregon. He played in 32 games for the Ducks from 2019-2021 and totaled two interceptions, six passes defensed and 73 total tackles (53 solo) before transferring to Auburn in 2022.

In his first season with the Tigers, James was named second-team All-SEC by the Associated Press after totaling eight passes defensed and one interception, which he returned for a touchdown, to go with his 37 total tackles (25 solo). He followed that up the next year with two interceptions along with career-highs in passes defensed (10) and tackles for loss (3.5).

Robertson-Harris had been on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list. The longtime NFL veteran started all 17 games for the Giants last season and finished with 35 total tackles (19 solo), three tackles for loss, six quarterback hits and one pass defensed.

After signing as an undrafted free agent, Collins played in nine games as a rookie last year. He caught two passes for 25 yards while also spending time on special teams.

Tuesday, August 4

3:42 p.m. -- TE Isaiah Likely is "a hard guy to cover," according to coach John Harbaugh. Likely was the first player the Giants agreed to a deal with when the negotiating period opened back in March, and after four years together in Baltimore, it's clear the head coach is impressed with the tight end's skillset.

"He's pretty shifty," Harbaugh told the media Tuesday. "He runs good routes. He can get in and out on those option routes and things like that. He ran a beautiful stick nod yesterday, you might have seen it. Faked a little out – we call it a stick route. It's a short inside-out route. Linebacker jumps underneath it, then he bends around it and stick nod for a first down. He does that stuff really well."

Monday, August 3

3:26 p.m. -- Coach John Harbaugh said he is "very encouraged" by what he saw from LB Arvell Reese in the first practice with pads.  "I think he looked good today from what I could see. I can't wait to see the tape, but he's playing really well. He's been playing well the whole camp since he got here.  ... You see the talent, obviously. I think he's very sharp for a first-year guy. He gets things right pretty much all the time, makes very few mistakes. He's a very serious-minded guy, and he's very determined. I mean, he's doing things well."

Saturday, August 1

3:45 p.m. -- RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. is going to have a "big role" in the offense, according to coach John Harbaugh. Tracy has reached 1,000 scrimmage yards in each of his first two seasons.

"To me, both those guys (Tracy and RB Cam Skattebo) are going to be together back there playing a lot of football," the head coach said after practice No. 4. "You can't play with one back anyway, and they're both competing for everything at this point in time. Against themselves, against each other, against the opponent, against the defense. Both those guys are going to play a lot."

The action will continue to ramp on Monday, when the full pads come on for the first time this year.

"It'll be a very similar practice," Harbaugh said. "It'll just change the tempo of the period. Without the pads, you're not wrapping. We're not going to be tackling to the ground on Monday. We'll be doing what we call wrap and release. We're trying to stop the ballcarrier if we can on defense and get the pads behind us on offense, things like that. I'm sure inside will be a little more physical than it is out here without the shoulder pads. It just ramps up just a little bit. But other than that, everything will be exactly the same."

Will there be full tackling at any point?

"We might," Harbaugh said. "There'll be certain guys, maybe the younger guys, before the first preseason game, perhaps. We'll see where we're at."

WR Darius Slayton is feeling "pretty good right now" after dealing with a sports hernia. "I pretty much started with it last season and just kind of played that way throughout the whole season," Slayton said. "Just because I wasn't going to just cut the season short with the surgery or anything. I got through last year and then I tried to kind of rehab it in the offseason and it just didn't really work. So, I just went ahead and got the procedure done."

Harbaugh was asked about the longest-tenured Giant on the team.

"I like him," Harbaugh said. "Hard worker, very determined. He wants to do well. Talented, big receiver. I think he's getting his strength back, basically. Two days ago, he looked really fast. Today, I feel – I've got to see the tape – I felt like he was back today. Yesterday, he probably was working through the soreness a little bit of recovery. So, that's part of that, coming off that sports hernia injury. But, yeah, I think he's on the way back, and I'm hoping for big things."

Friday, July 31

3:30 p.m. -- The play of the day occurred on the final snap of practice. In this period, the offense was attempting to drive down the field in order to set up a game-tying field goal with less than a minute on the clock.

After the offense picked up a first down on the first play of the series, second-year DL Darius Alexander made sure they did not get any further down the field. Alexander dropped back into coverage after the snap and was able to jump up and intercept the pass to end the drive. Following practice, head coach John Harbaugh praised the 25-year-old for the heads-up play.

"Probably a presence of mind kind of a play," Harbaugh said about the interception. "Probably felt the ball had to get out. That's a heck of a catch, very athletic play, game winner. The thing I probably liked about it the most, now that you mention it, was the fact that he caught it and got down right away. That's a game winner. He didn't put the ball at risk and then the defense wins the game. That's what you kind of want to try to do in that situation."

Thursday, July 30

3:31 p.m. -- Wednesday marked the first practice that saw WR Malik Nabers on the field with his teammates since the star wide receiver suffered a knee injury in Week 4 of last season. The third-year wideout took part in individual drills in the opening practice of training camp and was back out there doing the same on Thursday. This was a step in the right direction for Nabers, who was happy to be able to once again practice with his teammates.

"It felt good to be out there with the guys, get a couple throws, just moving around" Nabers told the media Thursday. "I haven't moved around in a long time, running routes felt good out there."

While participating in the first two practices of training camp is certainly an encouraging sign for the young receiver, Nabers would not guarantee anything in terms of when he might be able to suit up for a game this season.

"There's no target date," said Nabers. "Just stacking days. I'll continue to let everybody know how I feel and when I'm able to get back out there."

The calendar has not yet flipped to August, so there is still plenty of time before the Giants take the field for the season opener against the Cowboys on September 13. All Nabers can do right now is put in the work each day and see how his body feels. On that front, he's off to a promising start.

"I felt great," Nabers said about his body's response to his first practice. "My body continues to be stacking days. The training staff has a good plan on what they want me to do, so I'll continue to keep that in mind, just tell them how I feel and continue to get out there as much as possible."

3:15 p.m. -- OLB Abdul Carter has produced "two good practices" to start his second NFL training camp, according to his head coach. "He is doing everything well right now," John Harbaugh said. "He was in the backfield quite a bit. He's going against a really good tackle (LT Andrew Thomas), too. Those guys are making each other better. I just appreciate that kind of competition. Ones against ones a lot of times. And he looked good. He is not the only guy."

OLB Kayvon Thibodeaux started the day with an interception during a situational team period. The fifth-year outside linebacker tipped the pass to himself, corralled it, and ran it the other way for the score. Thibodeaux batted a pass in yesterday's practice, and Harbaugh spoke today about the importance of those plays in the grand scheme of the game.

"I like to see a lot of that," the head coach said about Thibodeaux's play on Thursday. "That's what you want to see. He's a pretty athletic guy. He's aware. He does have good hands. The ability to rush the passer and also the awareness to bat balls down is massive. Batted balls is a big stat in defensive football in terms of getting off the field. So, it's something we work on. We do not coach our guys against batting balls down in any drill we do. We want to practice it."

1:22 p.m. — The Giants signed LB Anfernee Orji and waived DL Ben Barten. Orji, 6-2 and 230 pounds, has played in 16 games in his NFL career with two starts – all with the Saints in 2024. He also spent time with the Titans last season. The Vanderbilt product led the SEC with 9.0 tackles per game as a senior in 2022 and became the first Commodore to lead the team in tackles for three consecutive seasons since 2003-05 (Moses Osemweige).

Wednesday, July 29

3 p.m. -- Coach John Harbaugh assessed the first practice of training camp in West Virginia.

"I sure appreciate you being here in this beautiful setting," he said. "This is a really, really great place. I was really, really happy with practice. I'm really happy with the situation as far as what we found here when we got here. Thought our staff did a phenomenal job, led by (Assistant to the Head Coach/Defensive Assistant) Megan Rosburg and many, many others. Just did a great job of getting us on point. I just can't say enough about that. And then the Greenbrier people, too. So accommodating, so welcoming. Not just roll out the red carpet, but try to make it the most productive that they can for us. The fields are in great shape. Probably the number one thing is the fields and they are in a great shape. So, I'm really, really happy about that. And then the mountains are really incredible."

The head coach added the team has now flipped the switch to game prep mode.

"We're chasing execution," Harbaugh said. "We're chasing execution. We're at a stage now, we're getting ready for the games. I mean, that's what practice is for. We're not here to practice. It's not a training camp exercise. We're here to prepare for the games that we're going to play. What plays we call, how we practice, all those things. We're not just running plays out here to run plays. That's why we want to keep our plays to ourselves when we're doing them out here. So, that's what we're evaluating, is our execution."

1 p.m. -- Before the team took the field, GM Joe Schoen provided injury updates on a few key contributors, starting with WR Malik Nabers. The star wideout has been working his way back from the knee injury he suffered during Week 4 of last season.

"We're going to see," Schoen said about Nabers returning for Week 1. "Again, this is day one here, so we've got a really good plan for him. The medical staff has a really good plan for him, and we're going to, always say listen to the patients. So, we're going to see how he reacts. And again, we got a good plan in place, so as long as everything goes as planned we'll listen to the to Malik and his body and again, hopefully he'll be ready and we'll see how it plays out. But no predictions right now, just because we have a long way to go, still a lot of camp."

"We'll see where he's at [tomorrow]," coach John Harbaugh added. "Part of it will be that, how it feels, how it responds, how it reacts, all those things. I think our guys, our trainers and staff, will be monitoring. See how the knee responds more than anything. We'll just take it one day at a time. It was encouraging today."

Schoen mentioned that the 23-year-old has already been cutting and running routes, so his return to the practice field in some capacity is another step towards his eventual return.

The other big injury update was the return of RB Cam Skattebo, who took part in team drills after his general manager deemed him "good to go" for the start of camp.

"He'll be out here, he'll be ready to go today, and he'll be doing everything," Schoen noted.

Tuesday, July 28

5:08 p.m. -- The Giants signed DL Marlon Davidson and TE Tyler Moore.

TE Thomas Fidone II and DL Sam Roberts also passed their physicals and will come off the physically unable to perform (PUP) list.

Davidson has played in 25 games with four starts since entering the NFL in 2020. His career totals include 40 total tackles (20 solo), two sacks, three tackles for loss, two quarterback hits, one fumble recovery, two passes defensed, and one interception which he returned for a touchdown.

The 6-foot-3, 278-pound lineman was originally a second-round pick (No. 47 overall) in the 2020 NFL Draft by the Atlanta Falcons. He has spent time with the Falcons (2020-2022), San Francisco 49ers (2023), Tennessee Titans (2023-2024), and Houston Texans (2025).

Prior to entering the NFL, Davidson played four seasons at Auburn (2016-2019), where he was named first-team All-SEC during his senior campaign. He finished his Auburn career with 51 starts, 175 tackles, 29.5 tackles for loss and 17.0 sacks.

Moore went undrafted this year after 45 games at Iowa State.

The 6-foot-5, 255-pound tight end played one game as a true freshman before redshirting the rest of the season. Over the next four years, Moore caught 21 passes for 245 yards and two touchdowns.

Moore made the Big 12 Commissioner's Honor Roll nine semesters during his time at Iowa State and was also named Academic All-Big 12 each year from 2022-2025.

Monday, July 27

12:15 p.m. -- The Giants announced plans to expand and transform their team headquarters, anchored by a new and modern football-focused facility designed to elevate player performance, preparation, and recovery. The project reflects the organization's continued commitment to investing in a world-class environment that directly supports performance and player well-being. This spring the Giants finished a complete renovation and expansion of their cafeteria.

The key enhancements of the new facility include:

• Expanded locker room spanning more than 6,000 square feet, featuring 100 full-size lockers
• State-of-the-art weight room with more than 11,000 square feet, including a nutrition bar and cardio mezzanine overlooking the indoor field
• Advanced sports medicine and rehabilitation space tripling the current footprint
• Integrated recovery and wellness areas, including hydrotherapy, steam, sauna, red light therapy, cryotherapy, dry float tanks, and hyperbaric chambers.
• Modernized player and team areas supporting preparation throughout the week

Saturday, July 25

5:21 p.m. -- The Giants waived LB Cam Jones and DL C.J. Ravenell (Non-Football Injury). Jones, who spent his first two NFL seasons with the Chiefs and last year with the Jets, had been with the Giants since late March. Ravenell, who played 14 games with one start for the Titans in 2025, was claimed off waivers by the Giants earlier this month.

Thursday, July 23

5:44 p.m. -- The Giants placed the following three players on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list before the start of training camp:

• TE Thomas Fidone II
• DL Sam Roberts
• DL Roy Robertson-Harris

A player can only be placed on the active/PUP list before the start of training camp. The player counts against the 90-man roster limit and can come off the PUP list at any point during camp and practice immediately. He can participate in team meetings and use the team facilities during the preseason while on active/PUP. He can also work out on the side during practices but cannot participate in any portion of practice (walkthroughs, individual drills, seven-on-sevens, team drills, etc.).

Players on the active/PUP list could be moved to the reserve/PUP list during roster cutdowns. If placed on the reserve/PUP list, a player wouldn't count against the active roster and must sit out the first four games.
