Despite a disappointing 3-14 finish in 2024, the New York Giants found a bright spot in rookie safety Tyler Nubin. Pro Football Focus recently named the 2024 second-round pick as a breakout candidate for 2025, and it’s easy to see why.

As part of a loaded 2024 draft class, Nubin shined by himself with a 76.0 PFF run-defense grade and a 79.4 PFF tackling grade. Ironically, his issues arose in coverage, where he was unbelievable in 2023 at Minnesota, with a 90.1 PFF coverage grade. Anticipate Nubin playing a more complete game in his second season, particularly if New York can upgrade its cornerback room.
