Giants Today Part 1

The Giants will return to Lucas Oil Stadium for the first time since they won their last Super Bowl later today.    When they get to half time of this game they will be at the halfway point of their preseason schedule -- so ten more quarters of experimental reffing, and live reps for guys who won't even make the psquad.  

But even with all of this time left, it's getting late early for Trindon Holliday, who hasn't played yet and won't play tonight.   He's the super fast return specialist the Giants signed during their haphazard festival of FA signings over the offseason.   They were hoping to even find a role for him in the new O, but younger WR's with real size and skill have been too impressive for him to beat out on O, his shot it returns, and with Odell Beckham returning against the Jets next week there go the punts.  

And unfortunately for Trindon, Demps will probably be the top kick returner when the season begins.  Injuries are tough. So instead of being a dynamic threat on returns and in the new O, he could be an early injury settlement and the kids continue getting reps at WR.
