What did we learn from the Giants’ 26-3 win over the Miami Dolphins?
Key Points:
- The New York Giants entered the 2025 season highly ranked after a strong 3-0 preseason, but their regular season performance did not match preseason expectations, similar to the struggling Patriots.
- In a recent rain-soaked preseason game against the Miami Dolphins, many Giants starters did not play, and the team dominated the game, though it provided little clarity on final roster decisions.
- Cam Skattebo appears to be the leading running back, with Devin Singletary showing promise despite earlier doubts, while Tyrone Tracy’s ball security remains a concern; Najee Harris’s presence adds further competition.
- The Giants’ defense limited the Dolphins’ offense effectively, with standout performances from Zacch Pickens and rookie Bobby Jamison-Travis, while defensive backs Deonte Banks, Dru Phillips, and Tyler Nubin showed improvement.
- Wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. demonstrated he can still get open and make plays, but inconsistency remains a question mark for his roster spot, as other receivers like Darius Slayton and Calvin Austin also made notable contributions.
