NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Giants defensive lineman Roy Robertson-Harris tore his Achilles during Organized Team Activities, likely ending his season.
- Robertson-Harris signed a two-year, $9 million deal last year and started all 17 games last season, playing with the first-string defense at OTAs.
- Achilles tendon tears are typically season-ending, with only a slim chance of return before the end of the year.
- The Giants recently traded away top defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence, meaning they have now lost two key starters from last season.
- The importance of free agent signings DJ Reader and Shelby Harris, along with rookie Bobby Jamison-Travis’s development, has increased significantly for the Giants' defensive line depth.
