GIANTS SQUAD SHOW: Minicamp Day 1: OBJ Rumors, WR Battle, Trench Competition

Mandatory minicamp is underway for the New York Giants, and while Day 1 looked similar to the voluntary OTA sessions, several key storylines are beginning to take shape. What should fans expect over the final two days, and which players have the most to gain — or lose?

With Odell Beckham Jr., JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Braxton Berrios still available, should the Giants consider adding another veteran receiver? We take a big-picture look at the wide receiver room and whether the current group has enough depth heading into training camp.

We also discuss Brian Burns’ outlook for 2026, which players could emerge from the Giants’ revamped trench depth, and the addition of linebacker Anfernee Orji. Plus, the ongoing kicking battle between Dominic Zvada and Ben Sauls, the state of special teams, and what fans should know about open training camp practices at The Greenbrier in West Virginia.

Jay Berman, Patricia Traina, and Mark Collins break it all down on the latest edition of the Giants Squad Show.
