cursed? Both Thompsons....
just under 3 weeks to heal up

hopefully he's a full go for the final preseason game and practices following that.
It Sucks

He needs the reps .. Wait until he gets a load of Dez..
Hopefully the Pass Rush Shows up if we intend to
out score them ....

get a load of dez? dez will be covered by one of the better cover corners in the NFL in DRC...thompson is simply an over the top guy in most alignments. I expect thompson to play and play a great centerfield. He will be over the top of most throws, dez doesnt have break away speed, i would be more worried if dallas had some serious blazers...beasley witten dez and williams arent that...
The concern with a shoulder is probably less getting a load of Dez...

...than the prospect of him getting several loads of Zeke.
And if Elliott's hamstring continues to sideline him...

...Alfred Morris delivers a pretty good shot too.
Oops - wrong gif. That was Jones, not Morris.  
Big Blue Blogger : 8/23/2016 7:03 am : link
Anyway, Morris is a load.
Dallas

in addition to a great OL, has a good stable of RB's.....

I say great, in comparison to the Giants....

On Giants Training Camp Live, Howard Cross made the point that Thompson really doesn't need the reps. He already knows the defense, he's already making the calls in the defensive backfield, so he just needs to heal so he's ready when the season begins.
good news. still wish he could practice and play  
Victor in CT : 8/23/2016 9:26 am : link
always better to get reps
Thompson isn't exactly the first line of defense in the run game

.
I hope I am dead wrong  
Bluesbreaker : 8/25/2016 9:19 am : link
He is still a rookie thats all i am saying ..
