Summary
The New York Giants load up their defensive line, signaling a shift toward bully ball in East Rutherford. Patricia Traina breaks down the revamped defensive depth chart, discusses John Harbaugh’s push for increased physicality in the trenches, and examines surprise battles brewing for starting spots. Also in this episode, why LB Arvell Reese has a strong preseason case for Defensive Rookie of the Year given his talents and the supporting cast around him. And the “Deontae dilemma” is also in focus, as uncertainty grows around Deontae Banks’ future following the team’s decision not to pick up his fifth-year option.
