So far, this new high powered offense hasn’t seen:
Saquon
Golladay
Toney
Rudolph
So basically, it’s the same as last year. Oh, and By the way, all 4 of those guys are damaged goods. Who knows how many games we will get out of the 4. Maybe 32 total.
think he could be unvaccinated, he got sick. Coaching staff may have been ok to let him roll with it and after he got sick not so much. Maybe a behind the scenes negotiation going on about what to do which is why there is all the cloak and dagger
Thorton made 1 play. Both backups left plays on the field. Thorton , i'm sorry, is not good, and Glennon is for a backup QB "OK" at best. Thorton is debatable if he's even practice squad level.
A few players showed something today. Stills, Harper, Shelton, Thomas, a few nice plays from Hernandez (sans the penalty), Dixon ,(for the most part) Couglin played well. Board showed his limitations - He's a good ST player but he dropped a ball he had to catch and Clement showed why he is what he is, (he's good outside the tackles but not up the middle), Harper was pretty good. Penny had a solid block or two.
Te play was uninspiring which is not good in any offense, especially a Garret offensem but neither Engram or Rudolph played.
Giants OL depth wasn't good, but it wasn't as bad as I thought. If Murphy is hurt , hurt they need another guy to eat snaps.

It is not going to be easy for Saquon to stay healthy. His injury last year was not something that just goes away. So that is two years in a row he missed time, lots of time last year. I’d be shocked if stayed healthy all year, especially the way he runs.

What is so crazy about that?
He got COVID
He went to college in a state with some of the lower vaccination rates
We aren’t really getting much information on the injury keeping him out just a standoffish statement from Judge
We know that not everyone is vaccinated on the team and while for other teams that might be more acceptable we know New Yorkers are one of the more vax heavy places. Many even moving towards proof to he inside
When of the beat writers said this week he thought there was something weird going on with Toney
I know some people don’t like facts. Perhaps to add to your “huh” you’d like to suggest why we are getting such little information on his injury, it’s highly atypical for that to happen in the NFL where we get such frequent injury updates that often go into great detail

I'd disagree and say that teams go out of there way to give as little info on injuries as possible.

What are you talking about? he tore his acl, he didnt get his leg amputated, he had the surgery to fix his acl, rehab and now the injury goes away lol..
one bit. In fact i’d say it’s smarter. Let’s say he was unvaccinated (and that’s what I’m saying not that he had COVID)
Would you want your rookie first rounder to have to deal with the circus around the vaccination conversation in the NY media? No, I’d want his agent and lawyers to figure out how to handle it, I’d buy more time to maybe see how cases that are currently in the pipeline to handle this stuff might work out. Hell, the Giants may be trying to petition the league to get permission to force him to do it or they might have told him he has to and he’s petitioning the league not to
Regardless if he is lying I don’t think he’s out on a limb. Would not surprise me to hear that the league would like to handle this quietly too

I was going to say you can't be this dumb but.....
The rest aren’t really speculative, New York is pretty far along on vaccination requirements for things like indoor eating. Florida is one of the less vaccinated states with some of the highest incidence of COVID.
I’m linking an article that says he “tested positive for COVID” so yeah I’m sticking with what I said. COVID has a much bigger problem with false negatives than false positives.

Thanks for the that. I didn't see any confirmation that he actually tested positive. But he was the first COVID player off of the list. The team doctors cleared him BEFORE Martinez (who was vaccinated) and Kalu and Rysen.
Judge just said he was injured and re-aggravated the injury in practice late this week.
I am not sure what you are saying unless you are trying to say Judge is lying.
Also, not sure why you are bringing Florida into this unless you are trying to make a political statement (which will get you banned).

I have, just this week actually. Darren Waller, probably the second best TE in the league and the best player on the Raiders missed two weeks of practice and no one would say why. Ended up being a minor ankle injury they didn’t feel like disclosing immediately. Everything on planet Earth isn’t related to COVID.

Not from this policy statement I just found on nfl.com via Google:
“The policy requires that teams provide credible, accurate and specific information about injured players to the league office, their opponents, local and national media, and the league’s broadcast partners each week during the regular season and postseason.”
It’s likely different because these games mean nothing.

Every day I post the injuries on the camp threads. Most of them are unknown. For the ones we know, Judge never told the reporters. For example, for tonight:
RB Saquon Barkley (knee), RB Gary Brightwell (unknown), WR Kenny Golladay (hamstring), WR Kadarius Toney (unknown), WR John Ross (hamstring?), WR Austin Mack (hamstring), TE Kyle Rudolph (PUP - foot), OG Shane Lemieux (knee), OC Jonotthan Harrison (unknown), LB Lorenzo Carter (calf), LB Elerson Smith (hamstring), CB Aaron Robinson (PUP - core muscle), CB Sam Beal (unknown), CB Jarren Williams (unknown), and S Chris Milton (unknown) did not play.
And we only know about Elerson because a reporter found out from an unofficial source (probably the player). Same with Carter (calf). Ross and Mack are guesses based on reporter tweets of what they saw in practice.
or make a statement on if people should or shouldn’t get vaccines. From a data analysis standpoint 50.2% of people from Florida have been fully vaccinated. A coin toss, so it’s not crazy to say he may be unvaccinated.
I’m not even in NY so I googled it, 7 days ago they did pass a vaccine requirement for indoor dining. So is it crazy to think a pro sports team in that same city would be pushing for more extreme measures than the rest of America?
This isn’t about my personal views at all which I would not be included to share given the no political discussion policy that I am very much in line with respecting as those discussions are entirely unproductive.

All of this COVID stuff is speculation. Toney did have some kind of ankle thing or something if I remember correctly earlier in camp. He probably tweaked it again and while he may have been able to play if it was a regular season game they held him out.
They don’t have to disclose injuries in preseason so why bother in this case?
The lack of reporting on the injury is just part of it
why was he not at the game or seen at fan fest? That’s the weirdest part to me
It was the same thing with Waller the past few weeks. He was completely missing from camp for days. Fans were even speculating he may have been “back on drugs” as he had a problem early in his career or that he was holding out for a bigger contract. Ends up being a minor ankle injury and he was back in the team weight room late this past week. Honestly, if I was a coach, I wouldn’t disclose anything to the media if I didn’t have to. When does sharing info with the media help anyone?
RE: The lack of reporting on the injury is just part of it
Held out of the “open practice” seems like that to me. I don’t know to keep, Toney has already gotten some weird media coverage I’d want to be specific about the injury to get it less attention TBH but this has always been just a theory. I’m not married to it, just presenting the confluence of factors

He worked on the sideline with the other injured players such as Barkley. He wasn't off to the side by himself. A bunch of players didn't play on Wednesday.
nothing more amusing than non medical, non football, uninformed people
making uninformed guesses about Covid, a players immune state, the role of vaccine and immunity, and a players injury, illness, or other problem that they don’t have any information about.
Yet they have all the speculative answers to very complicated issues without “facts” or as far as I can tell much knowledge or experience. this is worse than cable news.
In addition, whatever the status of fandom is, we have no right or claim to be informed of our #1 draft choices purported injury, illness, or whatever.
The team or player will tell us whenever it’s in their interest to do so.
Interesting you can’t speculate here on the “ state of the nation” but to speculate on a players private medical information is considered OK. USA 2021.
Q: (Wide Receiver Kadarius) Toney, we didn't see him out there at all for warmups or on the sideline. Any update on what’s going on?
A: Any injured player who was not going to be able to play in the game tonight, we didn't put on the sideline. Everyone who was on the sideline would have been healthy enough to participate in the game. The only exception would be (Running Back) Saquon (Barkley) and if it's a captain, there's a different deal. Sometimes, we'll let them on the field.
Q: What’s Kadarius’s injury?
A: Yeah, I'm not gonna disclose any person's individual injury at this moment, but we hope to get him out there this week.
Q: Is that something new though? When did that happen?
A: You know, he's been dealing with it for a little bit. Something was aggravated in practice towards the tail end of this week, so he was unable to play tonight.

Toney was just recently drafted, I’m sure he identifies more as a Floridian than a New Yorker as of now and the facts are half of people from Florida are not vaccinated and NY is one of the most aggressively pro-vax places N.Y.C. will require workers and customers show proof of at least one dose for indoor dining and other activities. - ( New Window )
You do understand how percentages work, right? If there were 2 people in your neighborhood and 1 person was vaccinated, then you’re at 50%. But if you have 10 people in your neighborhood and 4 people were vaccinated then you’re at only 40% despite having 4x more people vaccinated. Florida is one of the most populous states in the country - roughly 22 million people and 11 million of them have been vaccinated which is the 4th highest number of vaccinated people by state in the nation and double the number of people who have been vaccinated in NJ. How you can draw any conclusions from a random percentage about whether Toney was vaccinated is beyond me.

Also, not sure why you are bringing Florida into this unless you are trying to make a political statement (which will get you banned).
Would you want your rookie first rounder to have to deal with the circus around the vaccination conversation in the NY media? No, I’d want his agent and lawyers to figure out how to handle it, I’d buy more time to maybe see how cases that are currently in the pipeline to handle this stuff might work out. Hell, the Giants may be trying to petition the league to get permission to force him to do it or they might have told him he has to and he’s petitioning the league not to
Regardless if he is lying I don’t think he’s out on a limb. Would not surprise me to hear that the league would like to handle this quietly too
I’ve never seen an injury go this far with this much vagueness around it
I have, just this week actually. Darren Waller, probably the second best TE in the league and the best player on the Raiders missed two weeks of practice and no one would say why. Ended up being a minor ankle injury they didn’t feel like disclosing immediately. Everything on planet Earth isn’t related to COVID.

He’s your first round pick, surely you’d like the fans to at least see him. I’ve seen players crutch around the sidelines before. One of the beat writers said there was something weird going on too, maybe someone else remembers which one

Not from this policy statement I just found on nfl.com via Google:
“The policy requires that teams provide credible, accurate and specific information about injured players to the league office, their opponents, local and national media, and the league’s broadcast partners each week during the regular season and postseason.”
It’s likely different because these games mean nothing.

Every day I post the injuries on the camp threads. Most of them are unknown. For the ones we know, Judge never told the reporters. For example, for tonight:
RB Saquon Barkley (knee), RB Gary Brightwell (unknown), WR Kenny Golladay (hamstring), WR Kadarius Toney (unknown), WR John Ross (hamstring?), WR Austin Mack (hamstring), TE Kyle Rudolph (PUP - foot), OG Shane Lemieux (knee), OC Jonotthan Harrison (unknown), LB Lorenzo Carter (calf), LB Elerson Smith (hamstring), CB Aaron Robinson (PUP - core muscle), CB Sam Beal (unknown), CB Jarren Williams (unknown), and S Chris Milton (unknown) did not play.
And we only know about Elerson because a reporter found out from an unofficial source (probably the player). Same with Carter (calf). Ross and Mack are guesses based on reporter tweets of what they saw in practice.
I’m not even in NY so I googled it, 7 days ago they did pass a vaccine requirement for indoor dining. So is it crazy to think a pro sports team in that same city would be pushing for more extreme measures than the rest of America?
This isn’t about my personal views at all which I would not be included to share given the no political discussion policy that I am very much in line with respecting as those discussions are entirely unproductive.
Toney was just recently drafted, I’m sure he identifies more as a Floridian than a New Yorker as of now and the facts are half of people from Florida are not vaccinated and NY is one of the most aggressively pro-vax places
N.Y.C. will require workers and customers show proof of at least one dose for indoor dining and other activities. - ( New Window )
Saquon
Golladay
Toney
Rudolph
So basically, it’s the same as last year. Oh, and By the way, all 4 of those guys are damaged goods. Who knows how many games we will get out of the 4. Maybe 32 total.
I’m not disagreeing with you. Remind us of this comment around Game #15.

I’m not even trying to say the Giants or Judge are the ones making this call to deflect from this. I don’t think the NFL wants any stories about this, the NFL could be saying for everyone’s good let’s not talk about this in the open. Let’s not forget about the Ray Rice thing, we can’t pretend that the NFL is above withholding information to manage a story

All of this COVID stuff is speculation. Toney did have some kind of ankle thing or something if I remember correctly earlier in camp. He probably tweaked it again and while he may have been able to play if it was a regular season game they held him out.
They don’t have to disclose injuries in preseason so why bother in this case?
this
It was the same thing with Waller the past few weeks. He was completely missing from camp for days. Fans were even speculating he may have been “back on drugs” as he had a problem early in his career or that he was holding out for a bigger contract. Ends up being a minor ankle injury and he was back in the team weight room late this past week. Honestly, if I was a coach, I wouldn’t disclose anything to the media if I didn’t have to. When does sharing info with the media help anyone?
He was there. He worked on the side.
He worked on the sideline with the other injured players such as Barkley. He wasn't off to the side by himself. A bunch of players didn't play on Wednesday.
Yet they have all the speculative answers to very complicated issues without “facts” or as far as I can tell much knowledge or experience. this is worse than cable news.
In addition, whatever the status of fandom is, we have no right or claim to be informed of our #1 draft choices purported injury, illness, or whatever.
The team or player will tell us whenever it’s in their interest to do so.
Interesting you can’t speculate here on the “ state of the nation” but to speculate on a players private medical information is considered OK. USA 2021.
A: Any injured player who was not going to be able to play in the game tonight, we didn't put on the sideline. Everyone who was on the sideline would have been healthy enough to participate in the game. The only exception would be (Running Back) Saquon (Barkley) and if it's a captain, there's a different deal. Sometimes, we'll let them on the field.
Q: What’s Kadarius’s injury?
A: Yeah, I'm not gonna disclose any person's individual injury at this moment, but we hope to get him out there this week.
Q: Is that something new though? When did that happen?
A: You know, he's been dealing with it for a little bit. Something was aggravated in practice towards the tail end of this week, so he was unable to play tonight.

You do understand how percentages work, right? If there were 2 people in your neighborhood and 1 person was vaccinated, then you’re at 50%. But if you have 10 people in your neighborhood and 4 people were vaccinated then you’re at only 40% despite having 4x more people vaccinated. Florida is one of the most populous states in the country - roughly 22 million people and 11 million of them have been vaccinated which is the 4th highest number of vaccinated people by state in the nation and double the number of people who have been vaccinated in NJ. How you can draw any conclusions from a random percentage about whether Toney was vaccinated is beyond me.
