Taking advantage of an opportunity created by Kenny Golladay\u2019s hamstring injury and Darius Slayton\u2019s rest day, Toney, who was eased into the first two weeks of training camp after recovering from a COVID-19 exposure, caught a pass from Daniel Jones.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see a guy who\u2019s doing a good job taking it from the meeting to the field,\u201d head coach Joe Judge said. \u201cFor any young guy, it\u2019s important to demonstrate that you can just hear the call, relay it, line up and play. He\u2019s been really good in terms of transferring the material within the details [of] the assignment.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"705\" alt=\"Kadarius Toney\" class=\"wp-image-19062561 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/08\/Kadarius-Toney.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/08\/Kadarius-Toney.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/08\/Kadarius-Toney.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/08\/Kadarius-Toney.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/08\/Kadarius-Toney.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1295 1295w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Kadarius Toney<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Corey Sipkin<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In order to capitalize on Toney\u2019s unique skill set, which included jet sweeps at Florida, there is a need for the Giants to increase their usage of pre-snap motion after ranking No. 22 in the NFL last season. Toney motioned down the line of scrimmage a few times during practice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou look at our offense right now, and you can obviously see this time of year there is a lot of movement,\u201d Judge said. \u201cIt\u2019s great for our defense as well. It forces communication on defense and the adjustments they\u2019re going to show. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOffensively, it forces our guys to break the huddle and start building on what they have to retain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Taking a page from former Giants receiver Golden Tate, Toney, a high school quarterback, also showed off his arm when he caught a punt and threw the ball back 50 yards.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving K.T. out there and doing more and more each day,\u201d Judge said, \u201cit\u2019s all been positive.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Safety Xavier McKinney addressed, for the first time, his big hit on Corey Clement that was the catalyst for Tuesday\u2019s team-wide brawl.<\/p>\n<p>Judge previously called McKinney\u2019s hit a \u201cviolation\u201d of the expected tempo for that period of practice, but McKinney wouldn\u2019t specify if he meant to deliver the kind of hit that compelled Evan Engram to jump to Clement\u2019s defense and Logan Ryan to knock over Engram.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPractice, we might not get into it, we might get into it,\u201d McKinney said. \u201cWe compete as a team, and then we come back in here and we\u2019re all brothers at the end of the day.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Cornerback Sam Beal exercised the COVID-19 opt-out clause last season and has played six <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s since he was a 2018 third-round choice in the supplemental draft.

That\u2019s something I see Sam working on.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>The Giants signed defensive back Chris Johnson, who originally signed with the Texans in 2019 after going undrafted. They also reportedly claimed rookie tight end Jake Hausmann off waivers from the Lions, hoping the Ohio State product can provide some of the blocking lost to Levine Toilolo\u2019s season-ending injury.\n            <\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
