Deonte Banks Shines, but a Glaring Weakness Remains.
The New York Giants have enjoyed a strong summer from Deonte Banks. As expected, Banks has consistently performed well in practice, solidifying his role as a starting cornerback. However, there’s a pressing issue that the team must address before the regular season begins.
Cornerback Concerns Opposite Banks.
During the Jets-Giants joint practice, SNY’s Connor Hughes pointed out a significant concern: the Giants desperately need to figure out who will start at cornerback opposite Banks. This position remains unsettled, and it could be the weakest link on the defensive side if left unresolved.
The absence of a reliable second cornerback is troubling, especially given the Giants’ ambition to compete at a high level this season. The current roster options have yet to step up, leaving a significant gap that opponents could exploit.
Potential Solutions on the Horizon.
Given this concern, it’s likely that the Giants will turn to the waiver wire to find a veteran cornerback. As the waiver period opens, expect the Giants to actively search for experienced players who can provide stability and experience opposite Banks.
Finding a suitable cornerback before the season starts is crucial for the Giants. Addressing this issue could be the difference between a strong defensive unit and one that has a glaring weakness. With Banks holding down one side, securing the other side is now a top priority for the Giants’ front office.
