Battle for final receiver spots among things to watch in Giants’ second preseason game
NY Post
Here’s what to look for in the Giants’ second preseason game against the Jets on Saturday at MetLife Stadium:
It is always a race and a chase for the final spots at the wide receiver position.
If we assume Jalin Hyatt is safe — in an up and down summer, this might not be a safe assumption — then there are only two spots open.
Do the new guys with the most experience — Lil’Jordan Humphrey and Zach Pascal — get those spots or do any of the younger prospects — Montrell Washington, Beaux Collins or returner Gunner Olszewski — slide in?
How these players fare on special teams could be the difference-maker.
Deonte Banks stayed in the preseason opener long after the other starters on defense were pulled, notching 20 snaps and not exactly lighting anything up out there on the field.
Clay Holmes knows what it’s like to get roughed up as a closer in The Bronx and understands the feeling of getting booed at Yankee Stadium after blowing a lead late in a game.
Tua Tagovailoa comes to MetLife Stadium with two interesting streaks on the line.
Some mile-high drama preceded Chris Paul’s stunning Clippers divorce.
Justin Machado has known Spencer Jones since well before he became a top prospect and even before he coached him as a freshman at La Costa Canyon High School in Carlsbad, Calif.
The Giants have fired assistant defensive line coach Bryan Cox, a source told The Post.
The Rangers seemingly have found a motor for a type of third line the team hasn’t had in some time.
The Mets introduced a high-powered reliever who is aware there is another looming.
If we’re taking Leon Rose at his press-release words — which represents his only form of public communication these days — then the Knicks absolutely have to blitz for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The alliance between the Mara Family and the Tisch Family has, by and large, been the gold standard for all such partnership agreements. From the moment Wellington Mara and Robert Tisch entered into their 50-50 arrangement at the top of the Giants’ organizational flow chart on Feb. 21, 1991, this has been a model affiliation.
Cody Bellinger remains the Yankees’ No. 1 target, and while they aren’t necessarily close to a deal, they are making a big effort.
It wouldn’t be an NFL week if there weren’t some sort of controversy.
The Knicks have time to think. Giannis Antetokounmpo isn’t going anywhere just yet.
OTTAWA, Ontario — When the Rangers bench asked for the puck Artemi Panarin had just shot into an empty-net to secure a 4-2 victory for the Rangers over the Senators on Thursday night at Canadian Tire Center, the star Russian wing turned around and asked why.
