The New York Giants fell to 1-1 in the preseason following a 28-10 loss to the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium in Week 2 — a game they let slip out of their hands early.
Most starters played a full half with some seeing action into the third quarter. Others, who were returning from injury, were more limited in their reps (see: center John Michael Schmitz).
Here’s a look at the best and worst performers, courtesy of PFF, from the Week 2 preseason loss.
