Giants OTA takeaways: Darren Waller’s potential impact, and other things we learned on Thursday

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Thursday was, figuratively, Darren Waller Day for the New York Giants. The team’s new tight end was the featured attraction for media, which was in attendance for the first time during OTAs, and on the field.

Head coach Brian Daboll and Mike Kafka must have felt like feeding the media beast. Thursday’s first play, with Waller lined up split wide right, was a deep shot to Waller down the right sideline. The veteran tight end, acquired via trade this offseason, made the catch past a stumbling Darnay Holmes.

Later in practice, Jones and Waller connected on another deep ball.
