The Giants are expected to battle the Washington Football Team for the dubious honor of staying out of the NFC East’s cellar. Upon arrival, Coach Judge had a ton of work to do, but it doesn’t end there.

Judge, a man who probably needed OTAs, mandatory minicamps, and four preseason games more than any other coach in the division is dealing with more than just roster-building. These are sensitive times as men, women, and children are all trying to navigate through social injustices and one of the most unusual global health crises we’ve ever seen.

He did hire a former colleague from the New England Patriots, New York’s new assistant head coach and defensive coordinator, Patrick Graham. That decision might work out, as should the hiring of Jason Garrett as an offensive coordinator.
