The 2026 New York Giants season is officially here! In this full 2026 NY Giants Season Preview, we break down everything you need to know ahead of Week 1. From the explosive potential of Jaxson Dart…
I don't have these notes in specific order, but we're just going to go through them.
The Malik neighbors injury.
This is his latest quote.
I believe this was from September 1st.
So four days ago, not too long.
He said, my mind is focused on playing in the regular season, playing whenever that is.
I'm going to be making sure that I'm ready to go out there and I'm healthy enough to play all four quarters.
I'm getting there for sure.
So that like four quarters part, like that's maybe a tiny bit of a concern because like, is he...
Only going to come back if he feels completely 100%, which actually is fine.
If he were to miss the first two weeks and get himself totally healthy, I think I can live with it.
Like I do want him to play week one, of course, and I'll be at that game, which that's going to be my first Giants regular season game in like, I was going to say 10 years, but I think it's 11.
The last regular season Giants game I was at was the Odell versus Josh Norman game.
So that right there should tell you like this is I'm more excited for this year as compared to any year in recent memory.
So there's there's proof right there.
Anyway, I still think he'll be on a snap count week one.
That's kind of where my mind's been.
I do think he'll play but does he play 50% 60% 80% I don't really see him going 80% or more in terms of snap percentage.
But I do ultimately think he'll play based on everything we've heard.
But there's also been some concerning stuff.
Like I've heard beat reporters say he will try to jump off the knee that was not injured to make a catch.
And like, it just feels like he's thinking about it too much.
And that's like one of the biggest thing with injuries is like, not only do you feel right, but.
like mentally are you right do you still trust that knee and i'm not sure he trusts that knee just yet but it will get there at some point i'm just not sure if he trusts that knee yet but ultimately i still think he plays week one for notable cuts i i wrote down some names it wasn't too shocking but odell beckham made the team after the calvin austin injury which that was that was bad like that Really sucks to see.
