Welcome to Giants Nation player profiles and projections.

I know those Bobbiskin here with Mike Cohes.

And my co-host football ground, I almost just gave you no name.

Today we're here with tight end Daniel Bellinger and defensive tackle with Dexter Lawrence.

As always, we start with the offense.

Daniel Bellinger, 6 foot 5, 253 pounds, 24 years old.

Fourth round pick in 2022, he was a rookie starter, and he enters his year for his third year as a backup.

Last year was a career low with 14 catches and 125 reception yards.

He had his lowest role in the NFL.

You know, year one, he was a starter.

Year two, despite being a backup, played a lot.

And year three was their number three tight end behind Theo Johnson and Chris Manhurtz.

You know, in fact, he had three catches last year before Theo Johnson got hurt and then

finished the last five games as a starter with 11 catches in 94 yards he played

17% of the snaps before theo johnson got hurt and then when theo johnson went down he became the

starter so he goes from tight end three to tight end one with tight end one gets injured which we'll talk

about um but his his his his role is significantly decreased if everybody stays healthy,

Grump.

Yeah, and his production has went down too.

So in 2022, he even had an eye injury in which he missed time for,

and he still had 38 targets for 290 yards and three touchdowns,

223 down to 28 targets in just 255 yards.
