Let's get into it all, and be sure to keep checking back for more information right through roster cut-down day on August 26.
Latest news from Giants camp
Monday, July 28
The Giants put on the pads for the first time this summer for Monday's practice. That meant a whole lot of work on the running game.
New York has high hopes for their running attack with Tyrone Tracy Jr. leading the way. Rookie Cam Skattebo could also be a major factor based on the flashes he's shown early in camp.
"He's a low-level, gets his pads down, runs hard [guy]," coach Brian Daboll said. "Looking forward to watching him run."
Tracy and Devin Singletary are still taking almost all the first-team reps at training camp. Skattebo is doing a lot of his damage catching the ball out of the backfield, which should eventually get him some more opportunities with the starting unit.

The Giants are re-signing WR/KR Gunner Olszewski. He was with the team during each of the past two seasons. He takes the roster spot of WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton, who was placed on injured reserve with a torn Achilles.

After a slow start to training camp, rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart is starting to feel more comfortable. With more freedom at the line of scrimmage and confidence, he looked more like the player the Giants were hoping to get when they traded back into the first round in April.
"The game is starting to slow down," Dart said after Sunday's practice.
Dart threw an interception that was returned for a touchdown on his very first pass of live drills this summer. He conceded the game was moving quickly and his timing was off the first few days of camp. Dart was holding the ball noticeably longer than intended and it was a struggle to complete passes.
The early struggles are over. Dart had his best practice on Sunday since joining the Giants. He went 11-of-14 passing working with the second-team offense and was getting the ball out quicker.
An uptick in confidence made a difference.
"That allowed me to play faster and make quicker decisions," Dart said.
The results were noticeable.
Wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson left practice again after banging legs with safety Dane Belton. He limped off the field in pain but remained at practice and rode the stationary bike.
Wide receiver Bryce Ford-Wheaton left with what appears to be a torn Achilles. It was a non-contact injury. He was taken off on a cart with his head buried in a towel.

It was quarterback Jameis Winston's turn to run with the second-team offense Friday. After rookie Jaxson Dart had the honor most of the first two days of training camp, coach Brian Daboll made sure on not to forget about Winston, who primarily was the third-team quarterback to date.
Dart still snuck in some second-team reps, but he was mostly working with the third team. He had a better day after a slow start to camp and went 10-of-12 passing, which included ending practice with a touchdown pass to fellow rookie Cam Skattebo in the right corner of the end zone.

But it was notable that Winston jumped Dart, even if it were just for a day or part of a pre-determined rotation. He stepped up to the challenge, too. Winston completed 12-of-14 passes in live drills as the Giants still look to stack their depth chart while simultaneously focusing on Dart's development.
Russell Wilson is QB1. He only takes first-team reps. Dart and Winston are in the next group with Tommy DeVito lagging behind.

WR Jalin Hyatt (cramps/lower leg) didn't practice.
OLB Brian Burns and WR Wan'Dale Robinson left practice early after a nasty downfield collision. Both players were shaken but eventually walked off under their own power. They still went immediately inside the facility with team trainers.

It hasn't taken long for Abdul Carter to make his presence felt. Working primarily with the second-team defense, the No. 3 pick in this year's draft was regularly in the backfield during the second training camp practice. Several probably would have been sacks if the defensive players were allowed to hit the quarterbacks.
This only reinforces what the Giants saw this spring. Carter is going to be a problem for opposing offenses with his size and speed all over the field, not just as an outside linebacker.
"He's a hard worker. He's fast. He's twitchy," outside linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux said. "He can play it all."
The Giants and defensive coordinator Shane Bowen appear to be feeling out what Carter can handle. But he's being used all over the defense as a pass rusher. The early returns are good.

The Giants added $3 million in incentives to Dexter Lawrence II's contract for 2025, sources confirmed to ESPN. Lawrence was scheduled to make $17 million this season in a deal that runs through 2027. Nine other interior defensive linemen were slated to make more this year. So the Giants rewarded their best defensive player with the contract adjustment. Lawrence had a career-best nine sacks in 12 games last year before injuring his elbow. He returned to the field in the spring and has started to take live reps this summer.

Malik Nabers returned to the field with a bang. After sitting out the spring because of a toe injury, he had three touchdown catches from starting quarterback Russell Wilson in the Giants' first training camp of the summer.
But while Nabers looked healthy and explosive, the toe appears to be something that needs monitoring. The star wide receiver, who had 109 receptions and 1,204 yards as a rookie, conceded that surgery was something that was talked about. They elected to let it heal and he's feeling good now. But it's an injury that will need to be managed.
"I'm sure it will be," Nabers said.
As for whether surgery is eventually needed, that may need to be a decision for further down the road. Nabers isn't positive the toe problem will ultimately go away.
"Not sure," he said. "Time will tell."
In the meantime, Nabers appears to be moving well and expects to be one of the top receivers in the league.

Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart's first training camp practice was a struggle. The first-round pick went 3-of-7 passing with an interception and a touchdown in live drills. His very first pass of the summer was a pick-6 by cornerback Nic Jones. Not exactly the way the Giants drew it up. "Next play," was Russell's advice to the young quarterback.

The Giants reported to training camp and placed standout left tackle Andrew Thomas and running back Eric Gray on the physically unable to perform list. They also signed safety K'Von Wallace, waived safety Anthony Johnson Jr. and placed outside linebacker Victor Dimukeje on the non-football injury list in a series of Day 1 transactions.
Thomas underwent Lisfranc surgery late last year and recently said they would "not try to make any predictions" on whether he'll be ready for Week 1 against Washington. This seems according to plan. Sources have told ESPN the Giants plan to bring Thomas along slowly. The likelihood is he gets ramped up later this summer after missing the final 10 games of last season. That would give him a good chance to be ready for the Commanders.
