Good morning, New York Giants fans!
Joe Schoen on Giants’ RB Saquon Barkley: ‘We’d like to keep him around here’ | Big Blue View
“Saquon is a culture guy that fits into everything we’ve asked,’’ Schoen said on the Tiki and Tierney show on WFAN. “He’s a captain and he’s a very good player at his position who’s having a very good season. So, he’s a guy obviously we’re going to do our due diligence on and we’d like to keep him around here, so we can get into contract extension talks.”

Coach of the Year | Brian Daboll, New York Giants. The Giants looked to be embarking on a total reset this season. With Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen running things, New York was prepared to suffer through a dismal 2022 campaign with the hope things would improve in future years. But Daboll has made the most of a depleted Giants roster. Big Blue is 6-2 and on track for the playoffs, which no one could have predicted before the season began.

Giants rookie update: How are Kayvon Thibodeaux, Evan Neal, others progressing? | The Athletic
Unfortunately, the overarching headline for the first-years is probably ill-health. Just as Kayvon Thibodeaux and Wan’Dale Robinson were re-acclimating to the speed of the NFL game after missing time with injuries, the Giants lost a pair of rookies in Week 7 when both tight end Daniel Bellinger and right tackle Evan Neal left the win over the Jaguars with ailments.
Add them to the a list that already included fifth-round defensive lineman DJ Davidson, who was placed on injured reserve after he suffered a torn ACL in the team’s London game against the Packers in Week 5. Fifth-round pick and offensive lineman Marcus McKethan was placed on IR before the season started after tearing his ACL. Same goes for sixth-round pick Darrian Beavers, the linebacker who tore his ACL in the preseason after turning a lot of heads during camp.

Nick Gates’ family tearfully celebrates his Giants return | New York Post
Sonja Gates, who traveled from her home in Las Vegas to experience the moment, told The Post she didn’t care if Nick got to play in the game or not, that she was there to merely see him in uniform again. That, in her mind, represented a monumental victory.
“My whole goal coming here was so I could be here to watch him run on that field in a uniform ready to play if he gets that opportunity,’’ Sonja Gates said. “After the long 13 months he’s gone through with the physical pain, the emotional pain, for us to be there and watch him walk out on that field, that’s all we care about.”
