Geno Smith Dedicates Win Over Giants To Ben McAdoo, Jerry Reese

Oct 31, 2022 8:41 AM

Geno Smith led the Seattle Seahawks to a 27-13 win over the New York Giants on Sunday.

After the game, Smith was asked whether he feels any sense of revenge in beating the Giants considering how he was treated during his lone season with the team in 2017, when he took over for Eli Manning late in the year only for the team to reverse course one week later and reinsert Manning as their starter.

Smith said "not at all" and instead took the opportunity to show his gratitude to Ben McAdoo and Jerry Reese, at the time the Giants head coach and general manager, respectively.

"I'm happy to be here in Seattle," Smith said. "I spent one year with the Giants. That year to me was like a blur and my life has moved on from them. I don't have any remorse towards anyone there. In fact, to me, this game was for Ben McAdoo and Jerry Reese. They believed in me. So as far as any other thing, I don't really care for it. I'm happy to be here in Seattle. It's like a family here. It feels like home. And so I'm just enjoying my time here and continuing to work hard with these guys and just trying to be the best we can be."

Passport Issue Keeps Giants Punter In London

Oct 12, 2022 8:33 AM

New York Giants punter Jamie Gillan did not travel back with the team from London because of issues with his passport, according to sources.

The team was aware of Gillan's issue prior to the trip to play the Green Bay Packers at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and they expect him back before this Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens.

The Giants didn't work out any punters on Tuesday.

The NFL Network reported that Gillan came to the United States on a NATO visa with this father, and that was never changed to a work visa when he entered the NFL.

Saquon Barkley Doesn't Want Giants To Get Caught Up In Hot Start

Oct 10, 2022 8:58 AM

The New York Giants are 4-1 after a come-from-behind win over the Green Bay Packers in London on Sunday morning.

Saquon Barkley had 106 total yards and a touchdown in the Giants' 27-22 win.

"Yeah, it's a great start. 4-1. It's where you want to be," Barkley said. "But like I said, you can't get too caught up in it, you've just got to keep working and there's a reason why we're 4-1 and that's because of the process. That's because we've got guys coming in and working and believing in the system, setting the culture, setting the standard, and following it. That's what it means. We've got to continue to do that and if we continue to do that, continue to believe in each other — when we look back at this thing we'll be pretty excited."
