The New York Giants and Jets wrapped up their second and final joint practice at the Quest Diagnostics Training Center, where temperatures reached the 90s with high humidity. The early portion of practice saw competitive periods between both offenses and defenses, with the Giants’ offensive line facing a tough test against the Jets’ pass rush.
The Giants’ o-line showed resilience despite Jermaine Eluemunor’s absence, with Marcus Mbow stepping in at right tackle and holding his own against the Jets’ best edge rusher. The Jets’ d-line struggled to contain the Giants’ QBs, Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston, who completed several long passes.
In the red zone 7-on-7 period, Wilson hit Beaux Collins for a touchdown on a fade route, while Jaxson Dart connected with Lil’Jordan Humphrey for another score. The Giants defense excelled at intercepting passes, with TJ Moore and K’Von Wallace forcing in completions.
The defensive front continued to impress, with Kayvon Thibodeaux and Chauncey Golston making notable plays. Meanwhile, the offense found more consistency than on Tuesday, with Winston hitting an open Dalen Cambre for a deep touchdown. The practice ended with both teams having opportunities to score from their own 32-yard line, but the Giants came up short on a field goal attempt.
Despite the intense heat and humidity, both teams demonstrated promising signs ahead of their upcoming matchup.
