The Giants players had a day off on Sunday. For most it was a relished opportunity to relax after a harsh first week in pads and recharge for the demands of the coming week.

One player who did not seem too eager for the respite was cornerback Adoree’ Jackson.

"You may be sore, you may be tired, but at one point [last year] I wasn’t sore and tired, I was just out," the cornerback said of his injury-plagued 2020 season with the Titans.
