EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – A few thoughts from the Giants’ ninth camp practice …
– It was a much lighter day for the Giants, as expected with the Lions en route for a pair of joint practices on Monday and Tuesday. Quarterback Daniel Jones finished 7-of-9 passing. He actually completed the first five passes of the day before throwing an interception to Jason Pinnock. That one wasn’t Jones’ fault, though. The ball went right through the hands of tight end Daniel Bellinger. Bellinger’s been very quiet this summer. It might not be long before you start seeing Theo Johnson and a healthy Lawrence Cager (hamstring) out-rep him.
– There was a long touchdown to Wan’Dale Robinson from Jones deep down the seam (busted coverage). It wouldn’t have counted, though. Edge Brian Burns had an obvious sack – one of three on the day. It’s notable when someone beats tackle Andrew Thomas once. But three times? Should be noted: No pads. That puts the defense at an advantage.
