Giants news, 8/15: Curtis Riley making bid for starting safety spot

Good morning, New York Giants fans! Let’s check the headlines as the Giants and Detroit Lions get set for Day 2 of joint practices.

At the start of training camp, the Giants were rotating Curtis Riley, Darian Thompson, Andrew Adams and Michael Thomas at free safety. Over time, it has become apparent that the competition for the starting spot is really between Thompson and Riley.

Right now, it’s a one-horse race.

With Riley nursing a hamstring injury last week, Thompson got to start vs. the Cleveland Browns.
