The Giants were hoping Joshua Ezeudu could come in and knock the competition for the left guard position on its heels this summer, but that hasn’t happened.
The former North Carolina star is in a heated battle with several other players for the starting role and needs to settle in and be more consistent.
Right now, the left guard role is wide open. Let the best man win.
“I’m seeing a great competition,” offensive coordinator Mike Kafak said this week. “I’m seeing two or three tough kids — four tough guys that are really going after it in that core so they’re doing a nice job and we’re mixing them around and trying to give them as many different looks.
“In the run game, in the pass game, they’re seeing a bunch of different looks from (Defensive Coordinator Don Martindale) Wink’s defense as far as pressure. So, all of those things and you go all the way back, really to the spring, you evaluate that part of it then you take the whole body of work and now you can get a clear picture of how he fits into your offense.”
