Giants training camp: What we learned on Day 5

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The New York Giants held their first fully-padded practice of 2025 training camp on Monday, and there was good news. There were no fights, and no noticeable injuries.

Let’s get to some of what we saw and learned on Monday.

Run-heavy practice

Brian Daboll indicated before practice that the workout would be run-heavy, and he wasn’t kidding. There were 35 plays during the various 11-on-11 practice periods. By my count, 22 of those were run plays.

That is pretty much the exact opposite of how 11-on-11 without full pads generally works.
