Giants players opt-out of voluntary in-person workouts

Amid the battle between the players and the NFL in regard to in-person work this offseason, Giants players have decided not to attend the voluntary workouts.

The NFL Players Association released a statement via its official Twitter account on behalf of the Giants players Thursday.

Big Blue is far from the lone team that’s taken part in this boycott — the Broncos, Buccaneers, Lions, Patriots, Seahawks, and Bears players have additionally made similar decisions.

“We stand in solidarity with players across our league who are making informed decisions with the help of our union, both in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and what the data shows about the benefits to our overall health and safety,” part of the statement reads.
