  • Giants-Jets Postgame Notes by Michael Eisen EAST
    Giants-Jets Postgame Notes By Michael Eisen EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – When Mike Glennon entered the NFL in 2013, most coaches followed a familiar plan for deploying their personnel in the preseason: play the starters for a couple of series in the first game, a little more in the second, past halftime in the third and not at all in the fourth contest. And now? “I feel like since I got in the league, the whole trajectory has changed,” Glennon said. It did for Glennon Saturday night when the Giants opened their preseason against the Jets. Coach Joe Judge sat almost all his starters, including Daniel Jones, so No. 2 quarterback Glennon started the game along with numerous other backups. He played three series in the Giants’ 12-7 loss in MetLife Stadium. The Giants have two preseason games remaining, at Cleveland and against New England, and Judge has indicated Jones and the first teams will get their heaviest workload against the Patriots. “It used to be everything built up to the third game and then it started a couple of years ago, it was like no one played anymore,” said Glennon, who completed three of seven passes for 20 yards. “Now it seems like maybe teams are treating the first game like the fourth game and the third game like the third games – I don't know. You guys have probably been around long enough to see the same thing, so I don't know what the plan is. But yeah, it felt kind of more like a fourth, which is weird, but we'll see.
