Giants Return to Makeshift Quest Facility as Harbaugh Intensifies Camp

Harbaugh's hard-line practice plan aims to speed player evaluation to build a tougher team before the preseason.

Overview

  • The Giants resumed work at the Quest Diagnostics Training Center on Monday under active construction and are using temporary locker and operations spaces while major renovations continue through 2028.
  • Coaches have pushed a physically demanding schedule that has included 11 practices in 13 days and a full-pad session that lasted nearly two and a half hours to accelerate development and evaluations.
  • Injuries and availability have become a growing concern with center John Michael Schmitz in concussion evaluation, Chauncey Golston being checked for a head injury, Abdul Carter held out with a finger or hand issue, and several veterans limited or absent from practice.
  • On-field shifts emerged in position groups as Paulson Adebo worked with the second team and quarterback Jaxson Dart drew public praise for sliding to keep the clock running during a third-down scramble.
  • The combination of makeshift facilities, stepped-up physical work and the injury picture will shape roster decisions and depth heading into the preseason opener at MetLife Stadium this Saturday and merit close monitoring in practice reports.
