Daniel Jones, offense rebound on Day 2 of New York Giants training camp

After a sluggish showing on the first day of training camp on Wednesday, the New York Giants offense turned things around at Thursday’s practice.

Big Blue got a solid preview of what first-round pick Malik Nabers will be bringing to the table this season and beyond. The former LSU standout strutted his stuff with a total of three touchdown catches from quarterback Daniel Jones, who also looked much sharper.

Nabers wasn’t the only wideout who stood out on Thursday. Jones also found wideouts Jalin Hyatt, Allen Robinson II, Darius Slayton, Wan’Dale Robinson, and tight end Lawrence Cager for scores during various drills.

Nabers had some face time against last year’s No. 1 pick, cornerback Deonte Banks, in one-on-one and in 11-on-11 drills. It was an entertaining matchup.

“It’s just a good matchup; I like it,” said Banks. “We’re both competing. We have the same body type. Quickness. We are both quick and fast. It’s fun… I like competing against Leek. He’s explosive.”

The stars of the day were on offense as WFAN’s Paul Dottino reports. The wide receiver group is going to be exciting this year.

#Giants100 – Daniel Jones and the WRs were outstanding on Thursday. It was a constant flow of perfectly-placed throws and athletic catches all over the field despite mostly solid coverage. But will give Star of the Day to WR Dennis Houston (3 sweet TD catches in 11-on-11s).

Houston is a free agent the Giants signed this offseason after the Dallas Cowboys chose not to retain him. He has a long climb up the depth chart as does Myles Boykin, who also got on the board with a touchdown catch on Thursday.
