Giants’ 2nd-year Safety gearing up for significant developmental leap

As the New York Giants navigate the second year of their rebuilding phase, the expectation is that their draft picks from the past two years will start to contribute significantly.

In April, the team added several potential impact players to the roster. Both the secondary and the offense are on the brink of significant advancement, thanks in part to the acquisitions of Jalin Hyatt and John Michael-Schmitz.

However, the Giants’ 2022 draft class was beleaguered by injuries, which hindered their development. One such player was safety Dane Belton from Iowa, who is known for his hard-hitting run-stopping capabilities and good zone coverage skills.
