Arvell Reese looking like a top pick with another impressive day at Giants training camp

Observations from Tuesday’s Giants practice:

Something good

Arvell Reese’s impressive first training camp continued on Tuesday.

During a 7-on-7 red zone period, the inside linebacker tipped a Jaxson Dart pass to himself and came down with the ball.

The offense tried to sneak a receiver behind the first-round pick while sending a running back into the flat, but Reese read Dart’s eyes.

Something bad

The first-team offense was shaky.

Offensive coordinator Matt Nagy said the effort wasn’t “good enough.”

Dart had the aforementioned interception and could’ve had another when he forced a pass over the middle that Jason Pinnock deflected into the air.

Fortunately, a diving Chris Manhertz came down with it. Dart was sacked several times. 

Caught my eye

Second-year tight end Thomas Fidone II made the play of the day for the offense, a diving one-handed catch of a Jameis Winston throw 30 yards down the middle of the field.

Fidone, a seventh-round 2025 draft pick out of Nebraska, also scored a touchdown later in practice. 

Injury report

Outside linebacker Abdul Carter (hand) returned to practice.

Cornerback Paulson Adebo (undisclosed), center John Michael Schmitz (concussion), center/guard Lucas Patrick (knee) and wide receivers Jalin Hyatt (leg/ankle) and Juju Smith-Schuster (knee) didn’t practice.
