Giants’ Kadarius Toney optimistic about Week 1 status

Kadarius Toney has yet to hit an NFL game field.

After stumbling upon COVID-19 and a subsequent hamstring injury, the Giants‘ first-round draft pick didn’t partake in any of New York’s three preseason matchups. He also participated in a weird ramp-up period during much of training camp as part of a bizarre start to his pro career.

But per Michael Eisen of Giants.com, Toney doesn’t see any reason for a possible absence this Sunday against the Broncos.

“Unless you want to go make one up,” he says.

In the event Toney is active, would the coaching staff throw him into the starting lineup alongside top wideout and $72 million free-agent pickup Kenny Golladay?
