The New York Giants have two preseason games remaining before the start of the regular season on September 8 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Between now and then, the Giants will shed a significant amount of roster spots, so the next two weeks are imperative for some young players fighting for an opportunity to make the roster.

At the moment, everyone is focused on Malik Nabers and the recovery of quarterback Daniel Jones, not to mention the gelling of the offensive line. The Giants still have a lot of development to experience over the next month, and staying healthy will remain a priority.

Let’s take a look at the top stories for this week ahead of Saturday’s game against the Houston Texans.
