“#Giants are about to \u2018reveal\u2019 a lot about themselves<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n It is not supposed to be this way so late in the summer. But this training camp experience is unlike any other.<\/p>\n

Global pandemics have a way of wreaking havoc on most everything and so it has with the Giants. They finally get to put on the pads Monday and engage in their first practice that resembles what football in mid-August, less than a month before the start of the regular season, is supposed to look like.<\/p>\n

The Giants only get a maximum of 14 of these padded sessions in this unprecedented \u201cramp-up\u2019\u2019 following a spring without any on-field work. There are no preseason game<\/a>s, making the practices in pads \u2014 and the weekly full-team scrimmages the Giants will hold, starting Friday \u2014 ultra-important, with the Steelers arriving before long (Sept. 14) for a \u201cMonday Night Football\u2019\u2019 opener in front of thousands of empty seats at MetLife Stadium.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re going to be moving fast, we\u2019re going to be intent, we\u2019re going to have an intensity in how we work,\u2019\u2019 new head coach Joe Judge said. \u201cWhen the padded practices start, it will reduce to a 90-minute practice per league rules. We\u2019re going to build everyone to make sure that now that we\u2019re in pads, we can execute with the right fundamentals to play aggressive but safe. At all positions, receiver, D-line, it doesn\u2019t matter. When the pads go on, you have to see intensity ramp up.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

These padded practices usually commence after a handful of days in camp. This prolonged wait made assessing the talent assembled on the roster a study in delayed response. Running around on the grass in shorts and T-shirts is what the spring organized team activities are supposed to be about. There were none of those this year and, as a result, the rookies have yet to feel what the NFL physicality is all about.<\/p>\n

This is why nearly every comment from Judge or one of his assistants comes with a caveat, as far as assessing where a player is as far as readiness.<\/p>\n

Case in point: The Giants might need to rely on Darnay Holmes, a fourth-round draft pick from UCLA, as a regular contributor on defense, given the absences at cornerback of DeAndre Baker (on the Exempt List) and Sam Beal (opted out for the season). There are encouraging signs from Holmes \u2014 he had a nice breakup of a Daniel Jones pass to Golden Tate in a 7-on-7 drill on Sunday \u2014 but this data is incomplete.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s doing a good job in camp, but he has a long, long way to go,\u2019\u2019 defensive backs coach Jerome Henderson said. \u201cWe haven\u2019t even gotten to the pads yet to really see. That\u2019ll be when you can really see what you have in those guys, is when we put the pads on and it\u2019s a little more competitive, it\u2019s real and he\u2019s going against guys. Right now, we\u2019ve just been in shorts. He\u2019s been positive, doing some positive things. He has some growing to do. But we\u2019ll see what he is when we put the pads on and actually compete against each other.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Actually competing against each other is all NFL teams get this strange summer. This should not be as onerous for veterans, players who have been down this road before and should be able to navigate their way to the real season without the customary lead-up.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will be my fifth year in the league, and for me I should know how to tackle and do all these things,\u2019\u2019 said inside linebacker Blake Martinez, signed from the Packers to make the defensive calls for the Giants.<\/p>\n

Marc Colombo, the new offensive line coach, has good things to say about many of his linemen, including rookie Shane Lemieux, a fifth-round pick from Oregon. But there is this:<\/p>\n

\u201cShane is an extremely tough kid,\u2019\u2019 Colombo said. \u201cHe\u2019s versatile, he can play the interior positions. I\u2019m interested to see when we get the pads on, that\u2019s when you start to see that character come out, some of the stuff you saw on tape, and that\u2019s kind of where we\u2019re heading right now with the pads here coming up soon.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

And there is this, from Colombo, on young lineman Nick Gates, entering his third NFL season:<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s getting a good share of reps at center,\u2019\u2019 Colombo said. \u201cWe\u2019ll see soon. Again, we haven\u2019t put on the pads yet. Once we put on the pads, a lot of things are going to reveal themselves.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

The reveal finally gets here Monday.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
