Is There Hope For Giants In 2025 After Strong Offseason?
Is There Hope For Giants In 2025 After Strong Offseason? originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Up until recently… The New York Giants had more holes on their roster than any of their biggest rivals.
It should therefore come as no surprise that the team was able to improve its roster more than its rivals. New York added a top edge rusher in Abdul Carter with the third overall pick. They also signed a strong starting cornerback in Paulson Adebo.

Is there finally fan base hope that the Giants can turn around their fortunes?
New York's most significant problems have rested at the quarterback position and along the offensive line. Injuries derailed New York's line to the point where few quarterbacks could succeed. They believe another offseason with top assistant coach Carmen Bricillo can do wonders.
Now about the quarterback position. …
Russell Wilson is a Super Bowl winner and has the numbers any team looks for in a veteran stopgap. However, his recent struggles with the Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos have significantly hurt his legacy.

If Wilson wants to save his career, this may be his last chance with New York.
Then there is rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart. The Ole Miss prospect attended the same school as Eli Manning, and is even more mobile than the two-time Super Bowl winner.
His development, both on and off the field, could save head coach Brian Daboll's job.
That would require him to see the field early on, though.
In the end, a tough schedule won't make things easy for the Giants this season. If they can use some of the new additions they brought in to bolster their roster, this team may be better than many people think.

Pacers' Haliburton hurt early in game seven against Thunder
Tyrese Haliburton of the Indiana Pacers sustains an injury during the first quarter against the Oklahoma City Thunder in game seven of the NBA Finals (Justin Ford) Indiana's star Tyrese Haliburton limped out of game seven of the NBA Finals in the first quarter in a devastating blow to the Pacers' hopes of toppling the Oklahoma City Thunder to claim the title. Haliburton was already nursing a right calf strain and was a near game-time decision for game six -- when the Pacers routed the Thunder in Indianapolis to force the decisive game seven. Advertisement It was tied at 16-16 with five minutes left in the fist period when Haliburton caught a pass from Obi Toppin and appeared to slip as he tried to drive past Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Haliburton sprawled forward, beating the court with one hand in apparent pain. His teammates quickly surrounded him before he was helped from the floor and departed for the locker room -- hopping on one leg and supported by Pacers staff. The Pacers later confirmed Haliburton would play no further part in the game after suffering a "right lower leg injury", ESPN reported. Haliburton had made three three-pointers on the way to nine points before the injury. Advertisement Without their talisman the Pacers -- who had led by as many as dug in to keep it close, the Thunder leading 25-22 at the end of the first quarter. "It's a heartbreak, man," Myles Turner told broadcaster NBC as the second quarter got underway. "It's unfortunate, you know, biggest game of the year that injury didn't, like, hold up. "But, you know, we've got his back and that's what it's all about." bb/rcw

Tommy Fleetwood gets 100% real about being on verge of first PGA Tour win
The post Tommy Fleetwood gets 100% real about being on verge of first PGA Tour win appeared first on ClutchPoints. Tommy Fleetwood got 100% honest about being on the verge of winning his first tournament on the PGA Tour. The No. 17 player in the world has had a productive career, winning seven European Tour titles and finishing in the top five of all four majors. In addition, Fleetwood won a silver medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics representing Great Britain. But the 34-year-old is now at -16 and up three strokes at the Travelers Championship and trying to complete a career-first. Advertisement And Fleetwood is clearly excited, especially after shooting a 63 on the third day. In an interview with Golfweek's David Dusek, the English golfer gave a statement on reaching this career milestone. 'I would love to win on the PGA Tour. I think it's like an element of your career that everybody wants. I've given myself like a back-end chance a couple of times this year, but I've not been in contention. So this is like my first real chance, so I'm really excited about that and looking forward to it.' Fleetwood has several elite challengers behind him. Keegan Bradley and Russell Henley both sit at -13 with Henley shooting a 61 in Cromwell, Connecticut. Jason Day is the next closest contender at -11, with everyone else being -8 or farther back. Fleetwood, however, has to like his chances, and it's long overdue considering all that he's accomplished in his career. There is some light rain that's projected for Sunday, and winds are expected to be at around 11 mph. It won't necessarily be easy for Fleetwood to keep his three-shot lead, especially on a course that many players are starting to find their rhythm on. However, the veteran is the favorite to win the Travelers Championship and has done the work to put himself in this position. Fleetwood is also finding his best form when he's needing it the most in this tournament. It's time to close the deal now.
