Giants spy on themselves with drone at practice

At first, Daniel Fells did not see anything unusual, but he heard “a little buzz’’ when he hit the practice field Wednesday on a picture-perfect second day of Giants mini-camp.

The veteran tight end then looked up and spotted it: a drone, hovering overhead.

“My first thought was: ‘Is this one of ours?’ ’’ Fells said, laughing.

Yes, it was one of theirs. The Giants became the latest team to use a drone to tape a portion of their practice. The DJI Phantom 3 appeared motionless about 50-60 feet over the field, looking like a white beacon against the bright blue sky.
