Giants Beat Depleted Dolphins 26-3 as Roster Battles Stay Murky

Summary
New York rolled to a 26-3 preseason win in a rain-soaked game, but with many Giants starters out and Miami resting most recognizable players, the result offered limited clarity before cuts.
32 rushing yards on 16 carries by Miami highlighted the Giants' defensive control, with Zacch Pickens and Bobby Jamison-Travis each recording a sack and a tackle for loss.
40 yards and a touchdown from Devin Singletary strengthened his case in a crowded backfield after Tyrone Tracy fumbled untouched, while Cam Skattebo and Najee Harris did not play.
Odell Beckham Jr. stayed on the roster bubble after catching one key pass but dropping a would-be touchdown, while Darius Slayton led Giants receivers with 58 yards on four catches.
Three tackles each from Dru Phillips and Tyler Nubin, plus two forced fumbles by Phillips, offered one of the few potentially meaningful signs for a Giants team still sorting depth roles.
