Summary
Two consecutive hits on Cam Skattebo during Friday’s fully padded practice put Giants rookie linebacker Arvell Reese at the center of training-camp attention.
Reese, the No. 5 pick in the 2026 NFL draft, has already stood out through OTAs and early camp with speed, playmaking and strong football IQ.
New York had not expected the Ohio State linebacker to still be available at No. 5, and coaches now see him as a player who could make an immediate impact in Dennard Wilson’s front seven.
Praise from teammates and staff has fueled expectations that Reese could become one of the league’s most productive rookies and enter Defensive Rookie of the Year discussions.
