Do the Giants have a Deonte Banks’ problem?

New York Giants defensive backs coach Jerome Henderson, a former NFL player and long-time coach, has twice taken cornerback Deonte Banks to task for lack of effort in recent weeks.

After Henderson appeared to give little effort to chase down CeeDee Lamb after allowing a long completion that turned into a 55-yard touchdown in Week 4, Henderson voiced his displeasure to the media:

“Didn’t like it. Liked nothing about it,” Henderson said. “When your man catches the ball, you have break your legs, figuratively, to get him on the ground. And I thought there was room to do more.
