Episode Details

In today’s Locked On Giants podcast episode, we dive deep into where the Giants stand now that they’ve wrapped up the preseason and have set their sights on Week 1. Ed Valentine from Big Blue View joins Patricia Traina to break down everything we’ve learned—from the positive energy in the locker room to lingering concerns as the roster takes shape, and key player readiness.

We’ll revisit standout rookie performances, discuss who surprised us (for better or worse), and examine those crucial depth chart decisions ahead of the final roster cuts. Plus, we’ll look at how Head Coach Brian Daboll’s approach has evolved, the all-important need for a fast start to the season, and some under-the-radar position battles that could shape the early part of the Giants’ schedule.
