AUGUST 5, 2023 NEW YORK GIANTS TRAINING CAMP REPORT…
The New York Giants held their ninth summer training camp practice of the year on Saturday at Quest Diagnostics Training Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The team was in full pads for only the third time this summer. This was the final training camp practice open to the public in New Jersey.

INJURY REPORT…
WR Wan’Dale Robinson (ACL), OG Marcus McKethan (ACL), DL A’Shawn Robinson (meniscus), DL D.J. Davidson (ACL), and CB Aaron Robinson (ACL) remain on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) List.

RT Evan Neal (concussion protocol), DL Ryder Anderson (triceps), and OLB Azeez Ojulari (rest day) did not practice.

“Yeah, he’s good. I mean he’s as good as can be, he’s just in the protocol,” said Head Coach Brian Daboll when asked about Neal. “I think he said he feels better than he felt yesterday, so again we will take it slow with those things and let the doctors and training staff go through all that but feels better than he did the day before.”

“Ryder will be out probably a few weeks here,” said Daboll. “The exact amount of time, I’m not sure but that won’t be a day-to-day, so I’ll just get that one out of the way. That will be a few weeks.”

“Azeez, we will give him another day,” said Daboll. “Kind of two like what we did with (Leonard Williams).”

WR Sterling Shepard, OL Jack Anderson, and DL Leonard Williams returned to practice.
