10 Training Camp Observations So Far


  1. According to his HC Mike McDaniel, De’Von Achane’s role has expanded and he has new ways to get the ball. There was already word from the beat that his receiving usage will get a real bump this year, and this report corroborates that.

  2. Colts HC Shane Steichen and GM Chris Ballard are raving about WR Josh Downs, and the word is he and Anthony Richardson are building a serious connection in camp.

  3. WR Ladd McConkey is the pass catcher who seems to be building the biggest rapport with Herbert. The second-round rookie is being heavily targeted so far in camp.

  4. Kendre Miller has a hamstring injury, and HC Dennis Allen is not happy about it. “Hard to make the team when you’re in the training room all the time.”

  5. It looks like Giants HC Brian Daboll is set on Devin Singletary being the Giants’ starter at RB. He says there is a competition for the backup spot, which suggests that Singletary has command of the No. 1 job.

  6. TE Pat Freiermuth is looking like the clear No. 2 pass catcher in camp behind George Pickens, and he’s making the most of his opportunities.

  7. 2nd-round rookie WR Ja’Lynn Polk is emerging and making plays running with the first team offense. His teammate, 4th-round rookie WR Javon Baker, is also making strides and plays but is not running with the first team just yet.

  8. Giants rookie WR Malik Nabers is looking like an emerging superstar in camp. Daniel Jones is a bit of a limiting factor, but the offense is being built around Nabers – which is a good thing.

  9. Jameson Williams is having his best camp, is consistently getting open, and has formed a strong connection with Jared Goff so far.

  10. Dawson Knox is not going away. He’s still very involved with the first team offense as a dual-threat, despite Dalton Kincaid having a great camp himself.
