Giants could start newly-acquired pass rusher in Week 2

The New York Giants‘ edge rusher duo could look a little different in their Week 2 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, with one recently acquired pass-rusher potentially in line to start.

Boogie Basham, who the Giants acquired from the Buffalo Bills at the end of training camp, could get the start with Azeez Ojulari currently nursing a hamstring injury. The potential for Basham to come in and play in place of Ojulari is very possible.

What could Boogie Basham bring to the Giants’ starting lineup?

Basham, a second-round pick from the Bills in the 2021 NFL Draft, played 15 games as a defensive end last season with Buffalo, recording two sacks and five quarterback hits.
