Giants news, 9/24: Eli Manning’s early days, Azeez Ojulari, more

Good morning, New York Giants fans!

A side of Eli we don’t hear much about: the redshirt freshman practical joker.

“What I would call Eli is: a great crossover leader,” Cutcliffe said. “Because it’s defense, it’s offense, it’s any position. He has the ability of not taking himself too seriously, there’s no ego. He’s easy to like he’s sincere, he’s all of those things. Easy E you know? There’s a lot of people that play with the intensity he has that kinda carry that intensity around all the time or maybe can even be a little standoffish but not Eli, he’s pretty much an open book.
