John Harbaugh fully embraces Giants co-owner Chris Mara saying he no longer hopes to win, he expects it, based on his confidence in the new coach and team:

“I get it from the standpoint of expectations, but of course we expect to win,” Harbaugh said Wednesday. “How do you go out and compete at this level if you don’t expect to win? If you don’t expect to win, you certainly aren’t going to.

“We expect, we plan, we’ll be playing to win every single one of our games this year. That’s our expectation. That’s our plan. That’s what we’ll be striving for. And we think we can. We believe we can.” #talkinball @[email protected] https://www.nydailynews.com/2026/09/02/john-harbaugh-chris-mara-giants-expects-win/

Giants legend @[email protected] excited about John Harbaugh’s Giant impact already: “The only way to do it is to return back to the principles that the New York Football Giants were built on. They were built on big linebackers, big defensive linemen, big defense. And defense always will win championships.”#talkinball

Malik Nabers was non-committal to any specific game return date, be it Week 1 or otherwise, just now. He feels great but still has some checkpoints to know he’s completely ready. He’s focused on a regular season return and being better than before. Whenever that is #hiants #talkinball @[email protected]

Malik Nabers did his 1st practice in a regular jersey today. He caught passes from Jaxson Dart, Jameis Winston and Brandon Allen, including a leaping catch of a low Allen throw on a curl that showed some explosion from the wideout. A key step for No. 1 eyeing Week 1 👀 @[email protected] #talkinball

Malik Nabers: “That dog in me is barking a little bit” 🐶

Took his first live team reps of camp today. Showed some emotion after a 7-on-7 catch

#talkinball @[email protected]

Giants practice in shells (close to full speed but no hitting) just ended:

Malik Nabers did one release rep in 1-on-1 routes (no QB or ball), and his right leg didn’t seem to support his plant/cut well. He regained his balance after the stumble but immediately stepped out of the drill

Nabers later took his first ‘live’ rep of camp in 11 on 11. Jogged his route with a limp. Took a second rep later and ran it relatively normally

Took two more on the goal line, didn’t see a target. Then caught three passes from Jaxson Dart in 7 on 7. Release looked better there but still limping

After his third catch, where he jumped a bit and landed uncomfortably, Nabers walked off slapping himself in the helmet. And he didn’t do anything more in team

Nabers then left that field and did some individual releases with trainers on another field

Practice ended with Abdul Carter pick 6 of Dart after a Kayvon tip, then Ar’Darius Washington INTd Jameis Winston

Center John Michael Schmitz is back from his concussion. Suited up and practiced, although his snaps were limited

Colton Hood and Bobby Jamison-Travis both received some attention from trainers during the practice

OBJ drew a DPI in the end zone on Hood (on a target from Dart). Later, OBJ caught a pass from Jameis and spun the ball down on the ground for the first down. He wore sweats on a hot day and seemed gassed late, also did push ups after turning the wrong way on a deep target

DNPs: WR Jalin Hyatt, RB Turbo Miller, DL Josh Tupou

A new LB Chandler Martin was on the practice field in a 55 jersey with no number #talkinball @[email protected]

The Giants are signing QB Jake Haener, per @MikeGarafolo

3rd string Brandon Allen’s bad camp culminated in a bad 1st preseason game that compromised the offense’s ability to function

The Giants need a different arm to give their full roster a chance to make plays and the team

Haener beat the Giants in Dec. 2024 in relief of Derek Carr for a Darren Rizzi-led Saints team. He then worked out for the team recently #talkinball

Free agent RB Najee Harris is visiting the Giants today, per @AdamSchefter

The Giants had a need at RB already. Now they need a body even more because Turbo Miller (groin) is hurt

Harris, 28, is working back from a torn Achilles early last season with LAC #talkinball

Jaxson Dart says he is still “puzzled” about how he finds his way into the blue tent every time he takes a hit. He respects the NFL’s player safety efforts but is “still trying to wrap my head around” why he is focused on so closely. Dart says a miscommunication in protection led to the hit #talkinball

Giants took the pads off for today’s mostly jog-through practice. Arvell Reese made a one-handed gather INT of Jaxson Dart in live 7-on-7 from the 8 yard line

Abdul Carter (hand/finger) was back at practice, functioning normally, with significant wrap around the outside fingers of both hands

Rookie RG Sisi Mauigoa didn’t do team work after looking like he twisted his ankle Monday and received some sort of upper body exam. Daniel Faalele stepped into his spot. Aaron Stinnie saw some reps there, too

CB Paulson Adebo wasn’t out here at all. Neither were WRs JuJu Smith-Schuster (2nd straight day) and Jalin Hyatt or center John Michael Schmitz and Lucas Patrick

CBs Greg Newsome and Dru Phillips continued to work on the side

Rookie CB Colton Hood saw 1st team defense work for a second straight day. WR Braxton Berrios earned some 1st team offense opps

TE Thomas Fidone has become one of the ‘big play a day’ guys on the roster. Made a great one-handed catch from Jameis Winston going up the seam today

Malik Nabers again did individual work @[email protected] #TalkinBall

Giants just held their 1st practice back here in NJ. The relentless practice schedule is taking its toll

QB Jaxson Dart got his right ankle tangled up or stepped on in the pocket early in 11-on-11 and was limping but didn’t appear to receive any trainer exam, stayed in and finished practice. He was still moving & running, including on a scramble that finished with a slide! (And teammate cheers ha) He hit a deep TD to Darius Slayton late in practice on a double move on rookie CB Colton Hood

Rookie RG Francis Mauigoa (right foot/ankle) labored through an early limp. Then he appeared to receive an upper body check from trainers on the sideline but stayed in

WR Jalin Hyatt (knee) just got hurt at end of practice when LB Darius Muasau didn’t stay on his feet

DL Chauncey Golston left practice midway through and did not return

RT Jermaine Eluemunor (right hand/finger) & Odell Beckham Jr. (left hand) looked to be pressing through discomfort that developed during practice

Edge Abdul Carter (?) did not practice. Neither did WR JuJu Smith-Schuster (?), CBs Greg Newsome (left knee/leg) and Dru Phillips (right) or centers John Michael Schmitz (head) and Lucas Patrick (knee/leg)

On the play after Dart got banged up, Ar’Darius Washington batted Dart’s pass, and DL Darius Alexander intercepted it and returned it about 30 yards for a pick-6 TD

CB Paulson Adebo intercepted a Jameis Winston pass intended for Jalin Hyatt, while Winston also hit a bomb to TE Thomas Fidone. Marlon Davidson recovered a Damon Bankston goal line fumble @[email protected]

Braxton Berrios had a strong day at WR while OBJ didn’t see many targets and had a drop

Athletes First’s Todd France, agent for Brian Burns & Tremaine Edmunds, and AF VP AJ Stevens were at practice
