Three days of training camp practice in the books. In terms of activity scheduling, today’s session had a new look to it. Instead of going football hard for two full hours, Tom Coughlin implemented a “recovery stretch” following an hour and change of practice time. The Giants spent 20 minutes inside the field house in an attempt to “enhance this soft muscle business”, as Coach characterized it. The team will return to a full practice on Friday and gear up for wearing full pads on Sunday (off day on Saturday). What did we learn on day number three’s shortened on-field practice…
