Giants’ Jaydon Mickens has still ‘got some juice,’ but might not get to show it

Jaydon Mickens, a veteran wide receiver/return man trying to make the New York Giants’ 53-man roster, enjoys his job. You can see it on the practice field as he celebrates good plays and goes out of his way to share knowledge with younger teammates.

Mickens has been around long enough to understand what time it is. With roster cuts from 90 to 53 coming by Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET, he knows his NFL future is at stake.

“I’m conscious enough to understand that this is the NFL. Having a great time living my dream, but also it’s a business,” Mickens said during a recent 1-on-1 interview with Big Blue View.
