More than any other league, in the NFL you have to have a “next man up” mentality due to the prevalence of injuries. New York Giants head coach Joe Judge and the rest of his staff have had to convey this mentality to the team.
Big Blue has already had to deal with Nate Solder, Sam Beal, and Da’Mari Scott opting out. On top of that, DeAndre Baker has been put on the commissioner’s exempt list due to his armed robbery charges, and special teams ace Cody Core has been put on IR after tearing his Achilles.
