New York Giants Run Defense Needs to Stop Doing This to Improve

On today’s Locked On Giants podcast, what’s the one strategic tactic New York Giants defensive coordinator Shane Bowen leaned on a little too much last year that hurt the run defense, and how can he fix that moving forward?

We also look at wide receiver Jalin Hyatt and how he’s been deployed so far in his NFL career. Can the Giants salvage what they have in him by making one simple adjustment to how they deploy him?

And lastly, among the head-scratching offensive trends from last season, this is the one that we believe the team needs to reconsider moving forward.
