37 players who are locks to make the New York Giants’ 53-man roster

Daniel Jones is healthy and will start for the Giants in Week 1. One of the easiest roster locks on the team.

The Giants signed Drew Lock as a backup and insurance to Daniel Jones and he’ll start the season as QB2.

Devin Singletary will replace Saquon Barkley as the lead back but may be used as a part of a committee.

Tyrone Tracy may have only been a fifth round pick but the Giants won’t risk losing such a dynamic player by putting him on the practice squad.

Following Darren Waller’s retirement, Daniel Bellinger will reassume his role as TE1.

Theo Johnson is currently on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list but should be healthy enough to start the season behind Bellinger.

Malik Nabers. No. 6 overall pick. What else needs to be said?

Darius Slayton had incentives added to his contract this offseason and despite the seemingly endless speculation, he will start in 2024.

Wan’Dale Robinson is healthy and dynamic. He could be headed for a breakout season.

Jalin Hyatt’s rookie year didn’t go as planned but he’s worked hard this offseason and will produce in 2024.

Andrew Thomas will be healthy upon his return and remains one of the best left tackles in football.

Jermaine Eluemunor is as happy as a pig in… Well, you know what. He’s a Giant and he’s going to play like a Giant.

John Michael Schmitz had a very rocky rookie season but should settle in now that he’s more familiar with the offensive system and the NFL as a whole.

Jon Runyan Jr. doesn’t miss games and the Giants expect that trend to continue this season.

Evan Neal is a lock to make the roster but he’s not a lot to start at right tackle.

The Giants gave Austin Schlottmann a solid deal in free agency and he’s their best option to back up JMS.

Dexter Lawrence. That’s all.

The Giants signed Rakeem Nunez-Roches to a three-year deal last offseason and still envision hm having a notable role.

Defensive coordinator Shane Bowen wants interior guys who can rush the passer and Jordan Phillips fits that bill.

Ryder Anderson may seem like an interesting “lock” but short of adding another pass rusher, the Giants will rely on him in a larger role than many may expect.

Kayvon Thibodeaux is developing into a top all-around talent and could be headed toward the Pro Bowl in 2024.

After everything it took to acquire him, Brian Burns is as much of a lock as Daniel Jones or Dexter Lawrence.

Bobby Okereke is a key for the Giants in the middle of the defense and Bowen will rely heavily on him.

Micah McFadden still has work to do but is quickly developing into a solid player alongside Okereke.

The Giants lack pass rusher and even taking into consideration all the injuries in recent years, they will rely on Azeez Ojulari as a rotational piece.

Like Ryder Anderson, Bowen has some plans for Boogie Basham and hopes they can turn him into a quality rotational pass rusher.

The Giants like what Isaiah Simmons brings to the table and Bowen has already committed to him as a three-down player.

Deonte Banks, in just his second year, is the best the Giants have at cornerback.

Cor’Dale Flott is likely to play a significant role for the Giants in 2024 and is currently slated to start alongside Banks on the outside.

Nick McCloud is dynamic, talented, and versatile. The Giants can use him at a number of different positions.

Rookie Andru Phillips is likely to start at nickel for the Giants in 2024.

With Xavier McKinney gone, Jason Pinnock takes over as the team’s top safety.

Dane Belton is a solid player the Giants believe in. He fits his role.

From Joe Schoen to Brian Daboll to Shane Bowen, there is no shortage of love for Tyler Nubin. His role will increase the more experience he gains.

The Giants may have brought in a little competition for Graham Gano but there’s no doubt he’ll start come Week 1.

Jamie Gillan improved a season ago and there’s no other punter on the roster.

The special teams trio will be kept intact with Casey Kreiter once again serving as the long snapper.
