Rival coach labels New York Giants' Abdul Carter as a 'fully-grown adult'
The New York Giants are gearing up for a new season, and one player who's turning heads is rookie linebacker Abdul Carter. Carter, selected third overall in the 2025 NFL Draft, has been making waves during practices and training camp this season.
During a joint practice between the Giants and New York Jets, Carter showcased his skills to several onlookers, including head coach Aaron Glenn. Glenn, impressed by Carter's abilities, referred to him as a "grown man," a testament to Carter's physical presence and skills.
Jermaine Eluemunor, a Giants tackle and Carter's teammate, shared similar sentiments. Eluemunor, who has seen Carter's skills firsthand, believes that Carter has traits that can't be taught and compares them to a select few players in the NFL.
Notable moments during the practice included a sack of Justin Fields by Carter and successful scoring drives led by Russell Wilson for the Giants. Fields, while not directly quoted as expressing awe, was involved in a notable play where Carter was active.
The Giants are aiming to improve upon their disappointing 2024 season, where they won only three games. To achieve this, they had to find new quarterbacks during the offseason following their 2024 campaign. The specific details of the quarterbacks the Giants signed during the offseason are not provided.
Prior to joining the NFL, Carter played college football at Penn State. His impressive performance during the joint practices with the Jets suggests that he's ready to make a significant impact in the NFL.
Justin Fields, on the other hand, had some solid throws during the practice. Despite the sack by Carter, Fields displayed his potential as a promising quarterback.
The Giants and Jets will play a preseason game against each other on Saturday. Fans are eager to see how Carter will perform in a competitive setting, and whether he can continue to impress coaches, teammates, and opponents alike. Carter, with his poise and confidence, seems ready for the challenge.
