Summary
Monday’s return to New Jersey brought a clear change for the Giants: John Harbaugh said the practice fields, which played poorly in spring, were “great” after recent work and a new hire.
The upgrade comes as the Quest Diagnostics Training Center undergoes broad renovations and expansion, a project Harbaugh said will leave the team operating in temporary conditions for about two seasons.
Two weeks at The Greenbrier in West Virginia also helped, Harbaugh said, giving a roster and staff with many new faces time to bond during the Giants’ first away training camp since 2012.
Saturday’s preseason home game against the Vikings at MetLife Stadium now shifts the focus from camp setup to execution and technique, with Harbaugh telling players to sharpen fundamentals under fatigue.
