EAST RUTHERFORD - West Virginia is in the rearview mirror as the New York Giants have returned home with training camp shifting to the Quest Diagnostics Training Center.
We are just two days away from the first game of the John Harbaugh era − albeit of the preseason variety − on Saturday afternoon against the Minnesota Vikings at MetLife Stadium.
The Giants spent the first 12 days of training camp at The Greenbrier Resort some 475 miles away, and Harbaugh believes they came away a better team than when they started. There is still a month from real action when the Dallas Cowboys visit the Meadowlands in Week 1 in prime time on Sunday, Sept. 13.
We have been with the Giants for practice this summer so far and will continue to be your eyes and ears here at NorthJersey.com and The Record, documenting and analyzing every step toward Harbaugh's first season with Big Blue and beyond.
Here's what we're seeing and hearing as the Harbaugh Era continues:
Who will play for the Giants in Preseason Week 1?
John Harbaugh should provide more clarity regarding who will play and who won't in Saturday's preseason opener. We know Odell Beckham Jr. will, but as far as Jaxson Dart, Harbaugh played coy on Wednesday.
