Tom Coughlin said Wednesday that left tackle Will Beatty and cornerback Trumaine McBride, will play for the New York Giants on Saturday vs. the Indianapolis Colts. Neither has seen game action yet as they recover from offseason surgeries. The coach is uncertain if wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., recovering from hamstring issues, will play. Beckham reportedly increased his workload in practice for the third straight day, taking part in some 11-on-11 drills.
Here are some the day's most information tweets, some from practice and others from Coughlin's post-practice presser.

Jon Beason doing some agility work on the side. He's working on changing direction.

Kennard just put his left shoulder into Andre Williams and knocked him to the ground. A nice, and practice friendly shot from the rookie.

Short practice today. Passing game not sharp at all.
