Jevon Holland may be new to the New York Giants, but whether it’s orchestrating the defense from the safety spot or mentoring younger teammates he’s already sounding like someone ready to take on responsibility. The former Miami Dolphins standout met with reporters on Tuesday and discussed what it’s been like settling into a new environment, and why he’s optimistic about the team’s direction under head coach Brian Daboll.
So far, Holland says the transition has been smooth. The defense, he noted, feels familiar in many ways to schemes he’s played in before—particularly with its focus on fundamentals and communication.
