Initially of organized crew actions (OTAs), New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll was nonetheless unsure concerning the soccer way forward for star tight finish Darren Waller.
“I’d say the identical factor I mentioned final month, let Darren take what he must take and as soon as the choice is made, we’ll go from there,” Daboll instructed reporters. “We’ve got conversations, clearly, however when Darren makes his choice, that’s what we’ll go together with.”
It could be doable the Giants received’t wait an excessive amount of longer. June 1 is simply days away, and though the crew is leaving the choice in Waller’s palms, may merely minimize him after Saturday and notice a 2024 cap good thing about practically $11 million.
In an excellent present of religion, the crew will doubtless wait till Waller decides however he actually can’t take an excessive amount of longer. His troubled hamstring remains to be in query and the Giants have already loaded up their tight finish room in anticipation of him not returning.
Common supervisor Joe Schoen signed veterans Chris Manhertz and Jack Stoll after which adopted that up by choosing Penn State’s Theo Johnson within the fourth spherical of this yr’s NFL draft.
Johnson may be very Waller-like in dimension at 6-foot-6 and round 260 kilos and with some fast-track teaching may very nicely slide into the function Waller performed final season.
Waller must be seeing this however there doesn’t appear to be any extra urgency on both facet to get this case resolved.
