The New York Giants are making headlines again, and in this segment of "2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates," Drew and Rob break down some of the biggest developments shaping the future of Big Blue. The Giants cleared over $10 million in cap space by restructuring star pass rusher Brian Burns’ contract, allowing them to finalize the signing of rookie linebacker Abdul Carter. According to Field Yates, Carter and Burns are now poised to become a nightmare duo for opposing quarterbacks in the NFC. Carter inked a four-year, fully guaranteed $45.3 million deal that includes a jaw-dropping $29.5 million signing bonus — solidifying his role as a cornerstone of the Giants’ defense.

There’s even more good news for fans of the Giants. Rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers continues to impress before even taking a regular-season snap. PFF named Nabers to their list of the top 25 players under the age of 25, calling him the most valuable player on the Giants’ roster. Nabers dominated the 2024 rookie WR class in both receiving grade and targets and ranked in the top 10 in PFF WAR for the year. It’s clear the Giants found a potential superstar.

Meanwhile, rookie running back Cam Skattebo revealed on Kay Adams’ show that he’ll be wearing No. 44 as a tribute to his brother, explaining the family meaning behind his jersey choice. Skattebo is also gaining traction as a potential sleeper pick in the Giants' backfield. Analysts like Scott DiBenedetto believe the Giants may have found another fifth-round gem, comparing Skattebo’s toughness and versatility to last year's breakout star Tyrone Tracy.

In other key updates, offensive lineman Evan Neal has officially been moved to guard, as confirmed by Paul Schwartz of the New York Post. Giants legend Shawn O’Hara believes the switch could be the key to unlocking Neal’s potential, as the former first-round pick looks to revitalize his career and solidify the interior of the Giants' offensive line.

Also discussed in this clip: rookie defensive back Dru Phillips undergoes LASIK eye surgery in preparation for the season. It’s yet another sign that the Giants' young core is focused, hungry, and ready to prove something in 2025. Whether you’re craving cap space updates, rookie contract news, or positional shakeups, this segment has everything Giants fans need to stay up to date.
