EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- It may be early in New York Giants rookie wide receiver Kadarius Toney's career, but the head-scratching incidents outnumber the catches so far.
That is not ideal for a first-round pick whose maiden practice ended prematurely because he was wearing cleats that were the wrong size. The drama hasn’t dissipated since, and the production hasn't pushed the nonsense to the background.
The No. 20 overall pick in the 2021 NFL draft has two catches for minus-2 yards in his first two professional games. He did not catch a pass in the 30-29 loss in Week 2 against the Washington Football Team during 17 offensive snaps, which was an increase from the five he logged in the opener.
