Overview

  • The Giants’ defensive front recorded multiple sacks across two days of joint practices, consistently beating the Jets’ offensive line in rep-level matchups.
  • Kayvon Thibodeaux said every snap felt like a “race to the quarterback,” declining to assess Justin Fields because drills forced him into scramble situations.
  • Jets head coach Aaron Glenn hailed the offense’s response after early struggles by calling the practice “outstanding,” praising Fields’s performance.
  • Giants coach Brian Daboll indicated that practice outcomes will not dictate preseason playing time or final roster decisions.
  • Move-the-ball segments stalled under at least three sacks, exposing protection, situational execution issues for the Jets.
