Firstly of organized workforce actions (OTAs), New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll was nonetheless unsure concerning the soccer way forward for star tight finish Darren Waller.
“I might say the identical factor I stated final month, let Darren take what he must take and as soon as the choice is made, we’ll go from there,” Daboll informed reporters. “We have now conversations, clearly, however when Darren makes his choice, that’s what we’ll go together with.”
It could be doable the Giants gained’t wait an excessive amount of longer. June 1 is simply days away, and though the workforce is leaving the choice in Waller’s palms, may merely reduce him after Saturday and notice a 2024 cap good thing about practically $11 million.
In an excellent present of religion, the workforce will doubtless wait till Waller decides however he actually can’t take an excessive amount of longer. His troubled hamstring remains to be in query and the Giants have already loaded up their tight finish room in anticipation of him not returning.
Basic supervisor Joe Schoen signed veterans Chris Manhertz and Jack Stoll after which adopted that up by deciding on Penn State’s Theo Johnson within the fourth spherical of this 12 months’s NFL draft.
Johnson could be very Waller-like in dimension at 6-foot-6 and round 260 kilos and with some fast-track teaching may very properly slide into the position Waller performed final season.
Waller needs to be seeing this however there doesn’t appear to be any further urgency on both aspect to get this example resolved.
