What did the Giants players have to say following their first victory of the season?
The New York Giants were victorious on Sunday afternoon, defeating the Cleveland Browns 21-15.
What were some of the key Giants players say following the first win of the season? Let’s find out:
Quarterback Daniel Jones on the team’s game plan
“I thought we had a good game plan going in. It’s a good defense – aggressive, fast, pass rush is certainly something we had planned for and you need to prepare for. A lot of respect to this defense. I thought we had a good plan and for the most part I thought we executed it well.”
Jones on wide receiver Malik Nabers
“He’s played really well to start and it hasn’t surprised us with watching him in training camp and all the plays he’s made. He’s made a lot of big plays for us and I have a lot of trust in him going up and getting the ball. We need to continue to take advantage of his ability to make plays.”
Nabers on the difference in his emotions from last week to this week
“I have a lot of great teammates behind my back pushing me for greatness. This last week they kept pushing and pushing, and I am thankful to those guys who kept pushing me to try and be great, and hopefully we can keep the momentum into the next game and have another strong performance for these guys.”
Linebacker Azeez Ojulari on the Giants two fourth-down stops
“Yeah, you know big time play, Dex (Dexter), all of us, 11 men out there trying to play our balls off, man. Just play hard for each other. Just try to go all out, got off the field, on to the next.”
Running back Devin Singletary on the improving offense
“Man, just guys sticking together. No matter what happens we have each other’s backs and just going out and executing when we have to.”
Tight end Chris Manhertz discussing the team’s composure
“I think just having the next play mentality. I mean we obviously know that throughout the game there’s gonna be ebbs and flows. Things are gonna happen, but more importantly it’s really how we respond to it and I feel like we responded pretty well today.”
