Those reps won’t be at the expense of Eli Manning [url=http://www.thegiantsfansclub.com/dexter-lawrence-jersey/]Dexter Lawrence NFL Draft[/url] , though.Giants coach Pat Shurmur said Monday that Manning will play the next two preseason games.“Typically, I like to play all of them in every game, except maybe the last game where you wouldn’t play the starter,” Shurmur said, via Tom Rock of . “Hopefully we can get all four in the game this week.”In Thursday’s preseason opener against the Jets, Alex Tanney played 34 snaps [url=http://www.Giantsjerseyproshop.com/deandre-baker-jersey/]Color Rush Deandre Baker Jersey[/url] , Kyle Lauletta 17, Jones eight and Manning three.The Giants, though, will hold out running back Saquon Barkley. He did not play in the opener and likely won’t see his first game action until the regular season.“He’s getting a heck of a lot of reps here in practice,” Shurmur said.Barkley played six snaps in the preseason opener last year as a rookie and then sat out the last three preseason games with a hamstring issue.“When I played the first week of the season and played the season last year I didn’t feel like I was out of shape, I didn’t feel like I needed more reps [url=http://www.Giantsjerseyproshop.com/deandre-baker-jersey/]Youth Deandre Baker Jersey[/url] ,” Barkley said, via quotes distributed by the team. “I think we did a really good job with taking live competitive reps here, even though we don’t tackle to the ground. We have a really great defense that gives me a really good look. Do I think I need it? I think it depends on the player. Every year is different. Am I ready if I have to? Yes, my mindset every week is to prepare to get ready to go out there and compete at a high level for my team, no matter if it’s one snap, two series [url=http://www.Giantsjerseyproshop.com/deandre-baker-jersey/]Womens Deandre Baker Jersey[/url] , one quarter or if I don’t play. If I don’t play, I stay locked in and try to be the leader that I can to keep the energy and the vibes good on the sideline.” While the attention naturally fell to quarterback Kyler Murray’s trip to New York yesterday, he wasn’t the only top prospect to visit the Giants’ offices.According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Michigan defensive end Rashan Gary was also there yesterday, and Kentucky’s Josh Allen will be there today.Gary and Allen seem like more likely targets for the Giants, who own the sixth and 17th overall picks.While they need a quarterback at some point [url=http://www.Giantsjerseyproshop.com/deandre-baker-jersey/]Authentic Deandre Baker Jersey[/url] , the conventional wisdom is that General Manager Dave Gettleman sees adding a pass-rusher as a higher priority in this draft. That has led to widespread speculation that they’d lead toward getting that defensive help first, and circling back for a quarterback later.Of course, there’s no guarantee Allen would even be there at six, while Gary’s more of a mystery because of his great physical skills and lack of tangible production. |
