The looming Quinyon Mitchell showdown with Malik Nabers
It’s very probably we get a direct match up between two first spherical rookies on this recreation. Malik Nabers is trending in direction of taking part in the Eagles. That’s excellent news for the Giants contemplating how instantly kick-ass Nabers has been for New York.

Extra enjoyable with Cooper DeJean
