If this week’s joint practices are any indication, the Giants and Lions are primed for an intense preseason opener Thursday night.
Monday’s initial joint practice involved multiple fights, with star players like Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and Giants quarterback Daniel Jones joining the skirmishes. Tempers flared again Tuesday, with Giants first-round pick Malik Nabers involved.
Intrigue will carry into Thursday’s game, the first official warm-up for the 2024 season, which looms large for both teams.
The Lions are coming off a wildly successful year, winning the NFC North title and advancing all the way to the NFC Championship Game. Yet that loss — namely, the 17-point lead that evaporated — still stings, leaving Detroit hungry for more.
For New York, the hope is 2024 looks more like 2022. Daniel Jones, limited to just six games last season after tearing his ACL in November, is back under center, looking to validate his $160 million contract extension.
