Two were against Pro Bowl left tackle Dion Dawkins. He also lined up at three technique defensive tackle in a package with Kayvon Thibodeaux and Brian Burns on the edge.
2. Miller Time
Make room on your 53-man roster projection for a fourth running back.
Dante Miller, a second-year pro who starred at Columbia, lived up to his “Turbo” nickname by looking like the fastest man on the field with seven catches for 80 yards, 22 rushing yards and a 20-yard kickoff return.
The Giants have Tyrone Tracy Jr., Cam Skattebo (injured) and Devin Singletary locked into the roster, but exposing Miller to waivers in hopes of getting him onto the practice squad could be too risky.
3. Good Gano
There have been seasons when kicker Graham Gano was the Giants’ best offensive weapon. Then there are the last two, in which Gano has been plagued by injuries and erratic kicks (71.4 percent conversion rates).
Gano, 38, looked like The Old Gano instead of an old Gano as he drilled three long field goals (53, 51, 50 yards) in the first half. Gano hasn’t done much kicking in practice.
