Summary

The Giants defense played well at the right time of the year, peaking at the end of the year and during their Super Bowl run. But they really disappointed for much of the regular season, failing to generate much pressure on the quarterback and struggling against the pass. The Giants finished the season just 29th against the pass while ranking 27th overall defensively. New York did have 28 sacks, though, which was among the highest in the league. The pass rush will be a strength once again this season but the secondary remains a bit of a concern. A healthy Prince Amukamara at cornerback would be a plus, though. He gives the team some good depth and has shutdown ability if he continues to grow at the position. Special teams aren't too exciting for the Giants. Jerrel Jernigan is the favorite to handle both punt and return duties for the Giants. He is a young player with upside but didn't get many chances in that role last season, so the verdict is still out on him.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The Giants have a lot of talent on the defense side of the ball and we expect them to play better from day one this season. They are a legit starter for fantasy teams, mainly because of their top sack potential. The Giants aren't an elite unit but just outside that group.

For now, the New York Giants appear to intent on seeing what they have heading into training camp, but the possibility still exists that Grant could return at some point.

New York Giants SS Deon Grant will wear the helmet with radio communication in Week 12 in place of LB Michael Boley (hamstring). Defensive coordinator Perry Fewell said he wants Grant to wear the helmet because he is on the field a majority of the time. It is not known if Boley will wear the helmet once he is able to return.

New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin has decided not to play LB Jacquian Williams, using LB Greg Jones II more, as the team has struggled to stop the rush. The Giants are allowing the fifth-most rushing yards per game (130.1), and they're tied for seventh in most rushing yards per attempt (4.7). SS Deon Grant, who has been victimized for taking some bad angles, also didn't see the field much in Week 8.
