NEW YORK -- An unexpected team meeting called by Giants head coach Pat Shurmur after practice Tuesday afternoon ended with the news that left the room mostly speechless.
General manager Dave Gettleman was diagnosed with lymphoma and his big personality might not be as omnipresent around the facility as normal during treatment. Players had an opportunity to read the team's official statement before before it was released to the public.
"Obviously we were a little shocked because no one really knew," rookie running back Saquon Barkley said.
