Big swing for a couple reasons here. Shelby Harris bats a Brissett pass that's intercepted by Arvell Reese. But also, Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love hobbled off the field after the turnover. Something to watch. Jason Pinnock hit Love's knee on the tackle on the play before. And he didn't contact anyone before limping on the next play
Why it's #2 Jeremiyah Love (top-50)

Game Plays 6 in-game updates such as touchdowns, sacks and drives
- Giants-Saints defensive snap counts (trying to post before any more cuts): • Slight uptick in DJ Reader's playing time. Has to be incredibly challenging to limit his snaps because he is far and away their best DT. His TFL on third-and-goal before halftime could have been a game-changing play. Shelby Harris is a tier or two below, and then it drops off a cliff when they get to the young guys. • Abdul Carter was dominant early with the consecutive holding penalties. Bad tackles just don't have a chance against him. He was on a pitch count while playing through a calf injury. He was quieter as the game progressed, but it also turned into a run-heavy second half. Kayvon Thibodeaux has been better the past two weeks, but they still need more. The roughing the passer penalty was just unnecessary. I'll just say the Jihad Ward release was not a surprise. Trace Ford is out of practice squad elevations. I'm not sure it's a lock that he gets signed to the 53. You're seeing the difference…
- Giants' defensive snap counts vs. Commanders: • Very even split among the top three defensive tackles. That's mostly because Darius Alexander was used as an interior rusher on passing downs. He has replaced Chauncey Golston, while Jihad Ward replaced Kayvon Thibodeaux (who has shifted outside to replace Brian Burns). DJ Reader has been so steady. They've shown impressive discipline not over-using him, which can't be easy because the drop off is significant when he's off the field. Jacory Croskey-Merritt's 33-yard touchdown run on the opening drive came on the first play after Reader and Shelby Harris were replaced by Alexander and CJ Okoye. Okoye got easily displaced from the gap where the run went. Harris has been playing better recently, but the depth here is still a concern. Ward failed to make an impact in his debut in his role as an interior rusher on passing downs and a DE in the base 3-4. • Abdul Carter continues to play at an extremely high level. He had six pressures…
- Giants' defensive snap counts vs. Cardinals: • Uptick in snaps for DJ Reader and Shelby Harris. Reader has been quietly steady all season. Harris had his best game, highlighted by the tipped pass that turned into an Arvell Reese interception. Darius Alexander's playing time increased as he was back in the third-down package with Kayvon Thibodeaux bumped out to edge rusher. CJ Okoye had an impressive bull rush for his first career sack. Chauncey Golston played almost exclusively on the defensive line before leaving with a neck injury (he looked woozy) in the third quarter. Alexander and Reader were the interior DL on passing downs after Golston's departure. • Abdul Carter had a major impact rushing the passer regardless of what the box score says. He was constantly winning quickly and putting pressure on Jacoby Brissett. He has been off the field for four defensive snaps in the past two games. That's not sustainable. Need to find a way to rotate more even with Brian Burns…
- Giants defensive snap counts vs. Rams: • This was the matchup that was going to put the remade interior defensive line to the test. The Rams running backs averaged 6.8 yards per carry. DJ Reader and Shelby Harris have been around 50% of the snaps in each of the first two games. This was the expectation with two older DT, so that leaves a lot of snaps for backups. Darius Alexander was a healthy scratch, while the players in his place failed to make an impact. Chauncey Golston is playing a lot of snaps because he's a starting DL in the base (Giants played more 3-4 last night) and he rushes inside on passing downs. Still not convinced playing him inside so much is the best use of his skill set. • Abdul Carter with another heavy workload. Other than the sack, a quiet game. Nowhere near the impact he had in the opener. Pass rush was quiet overall. Similar refrain about chip blocks and QB getting the ball out quick. Need to figure out a counter because can't just have a QB like Matthew…
- Giants defensive snap counts vs. Cowboys: • As someone who charts the personnel live by hand, I appreciate that Dennard Wilson had very strong patterns to his substitutions. DJ Reader and Shelby Harris are clearly the top two interior DL. Getting away with playing the vets less than 50 percent of the snaps and holding the Cowboys to 3.8 yards per carry is a big win. When they were out on early downs, Darius Alexander and CJ Okoye took over. On third downs, Kayvon Thibodeaux and Chauncey Golston were the interior DL. Golston is a versatile piece. He can play DE in the base, DT in sub packages and OLB when needed in that rotation. • Thibodeaux is being asked to make the biggest sacrifice to accommodate this front seven because Abdul Carter and Brian Burns are playing nearly every snap on the edge. Nice hustle by Thibodeaux to chase Dak Prescott on his interception. Carter had a game like many in his rookie year, where there are no sacks in the box score, but his presence was…
- Defensive tackle a position Giants had to continue to address. They traded Dexter Lawrence in the spring, then signed some vets including DJ Reader and Shelby Harris. But still more work to do · Quoting Mike Garafolo: Another John Harbaugh reunion: The #Giants are trading for DT C.J. Okoye, per me and @RapSheet, sending a 2028 7th-rounder to the #Ravens for the former International Player Pathway participant. Okoye, who recovered a fumble for Baltimore last night, heads to East Rutherford.

- Giants' Shelby Harris Says J.J. McCarthy Landed in the Right Place at the Right Time
- Giants-Titans defensive snap counts: • DJ Reader and Shelby Harris have held steady around 50% of the snaps in all three games. Darius Alexander back in the mix after being a healthy scratch in Week 2. He figures to see more time on passing downs in Brian Burns’ absence. • Didn’t even consider the possibility of Burns playing after he missed practice all week with a sprained ankle. They started out using him only on third downs, but he eventually got some early-down snaps as the game progressed. Impossible to say if the ankle injury contributed to the ACL. I’d be more inclined to blame the turf. It’s weird to not feel great about a defensive performance that yielded just seven points. But the lack of pass rush was alarming. Abdul Carter played 97% of the snaps, and that was with Burns still in the mix. That’s not sustainable. Kayvon Thibodeaux was quiet in his most extensive PT of the season. Going to need to pick it up with Burns out. • Arvell Reese looked like a top five…

- Sep 8 Dan Duggan (X) The Giants' "unofficial" depth chart for Week 1 officially lists a few notable developments that we saw as the preseason progressed: • Chauncey Golston as a starting DE alongside DJ Reader and Shelby Harris. • Greg Newsome and Deonte Banks starting corners. Also: • Tyrone Tracy, Najee Harris and Devin Singletary all listed as RB2. • Darnell Mooney listed as the starting WR alongside Malik Nabers. • Kayvon Thibodeaux no longer listed as a co-starter with Abdul Carter. • They list a starting nickel corner now, and it's Dru Phillips, as expected. • Jevon Holland listed as the top punt returner. Uhh, no. That'll be Braxton Berrios.
