Apple, Jenkins among Giants not at practice following bye week
Ralph Vacchiano | Facebook | Twitter | Archive EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Two years ago, as Tom Coughlin was being nudged out the door, Giants co-owner John Mara put his general manager on notice. Jerry Reese, he said, "can't hide from the record." And he insisted Reese knew the Giants' future was "on him." Two years later, Reese barely had time to bask in the glow of the Giants' first playoff berth in five seasons before the team he rebuilt collapsed into a 1-6 mess.
Rodgers-Cromartie, Vereen should be names Giants consider trading
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - NFL trades are rare to begin with, especially in the middle of the season. The Giants have only done it once in the Jerry Reese era, when they acquired injury-prone linebacker Jon Beason from the Carolina Panthers back in 2013. So with the trade deadline set for 4 p.m. on Tuesday, don't expect the Giants to be in on the action. But they should be, especially with the few marketable veterans they have in the midst of a 1-6 season that is already lost.
Report: Odell Beckham Sr. arrested on gun, marijuana charges

Unpacking Jerry Reese's State of the Giants address
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Jerry Reese's press conference on Tuesday was his first in 89 days. If form holds, it'll be 69 more days before he speaks again, if he gets the chance to speak after the season at all. That leaves a lot to unpack from the 21 minutes he stood at the podium -- the only time he'll spend explaining the state of the franchise to his paying customers in a more-than-five-month span.
Amid 1-6 start, Jerry Reese knows he is on notice
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Two years ago, as Tom Coughlin was being nudged out the door, Giants co-owner John Mara put his general manager on notice. Jerry Reese, he said, "can't hide from the record." And he insisted Reese knew the Giants' future was "on him." Two years later, Reese barely had time to bask in the glow of the Giants' first playoff berth in five seasons before the team he rebuilt collapsed into a 1-6 mess. And yes, he knows he can't hide from that record either.
Jerry Reese, Giants not ready to turn to Davis Webb right now
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Jerry Reese cracked the door open a bit for the Giants to sit quarterback Eli Manning take a look at rookie Davis Webb "at some point" this season. But he also made it clear that the Giants, despite being a dismal 1-6, are nowhere near that point now. "At some point, but when is that some point?" Reese said.
Reese: 'I'm the reason we're 1-6'
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Jerry Reese made it clear that the team he assembled for the Giants is far too talented to be 1-6. He believes the pieces are in place for success all over his roster, including along the much-maligned offensive line. But as his boss said two years ago, there's no way the Giants GM can hide from his record. So he took the hit on Tuesday for this disappointing season that will almost certainly result in the Giants missing the playoffs for the fourth time in five years.
Jerry Reese can't hide from job security questions with 1-6 Giants
It took 15 years of lousy football to convince the Giants to undergo their last massive organizational shakeup. And even then it took some extraordinary circumstances - an ownership family feud, the Miracle at the Meadowlands, a nudge from the NFL commissioner.
McAdoo won't look at Davis Webb under center despite lost season
There are nine games left in a Giants season that is already lost, and they have a player who might be their next franchise quarterback gathering dust on their sidelines. It seems like the perfect time to take a look at Davis Webb and get him a little game experience. But according to Ben McAdoo, the future - at least at quarterback - will have to wait.
Vacc's Week 7 thoughts: Giants in for a long season with depleted offense
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Last week's win in Denver was a nice break from the reality of this miserable Giants season. And from the way they played in their 24-7 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, it's likely to only get worse. Because the bottom line for the Giants (1-6) is this: They could barely move the ball this season with Odell Beckham Jr. on their side, and they now can barely move it even a little without him.
Decimated roster leaves Manning, Giants helpless to move the ball
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- It is already another lost season late in his career, undone by a startling lack of talent around him, and no one would blame Eli Manning if he finally let his frustrations boil over. Yes, he could play better, but it still might not matter when so much around him is going so unbelievably wrong. It has to be agonizing, frustrating, infuriating.
