Giants name Eli Manning, Jonathan Casillas, Zak DeOssie captains for back-to-back seasons

Meet the new captains. Same as the old captains.

While the Giants want to change the outcome of this season and progress further into the postseason – ideally to its end – they began the year be electing the same three players to represent them as captains who served in 2016.

Eli Manning, Jonathan Casillas and Zak DeOssie.

Manning, of course, is Captain Obvious. He has held the rank since the NFL began using it officially in 2007.

“Obviously, Eli’s history in this building speaks for itself, and a lot of the things that he has accomplished with this team,” Ben McAdoo said.
