Hey, giant fans. Welcome to The Giant Insider podcast. My name is Jerry Foley.

I'm the senior editor of the Giant insider newspaper with me as always as the beat writer in the heart of Giants Nation. Nobody beats the biz.

Chris Bizignano.

All right, dude. We got a familiar face back in, back with the Giants.

And we have a slew of injuries before we go to, well, they're there now, before we play

Green Bay in London.

But look, I guess let's start off with Landon Collins coming back.

And some people are more excited than others.

I don't know what to think of this move.

I'm happy he's back, but I don't know what he brings to the table, Chris.

Like what were your thoughts when you saw that they were going to sign him? Run stopper, guy in the box, another guy. That's why they brought Jalen Smith in. That's why they brought Landon back. He had a really good workout. He looked pretty good. He's going to be using it. Basically, Wink's telling him you're going to be using that hybrid role.

You're going to be down in a box. Basically, there's a lineback. And Landon was cool with it. I think he'll end even realize that's what his role is now for the rest of his career. You know, a couple years ago, Washington, they kind of had him in a box. Landon wasn't happy a lot. you know, you want to be back, you know, safety.

But that's what he is now.

So, and they're going to give it a shot.

Dude, uh,, the safety. But that's what he is now.

So, and they're going to give it a shot.

Dude, look, wink, from day one, week hasn't been thrilled about the inside backers. I think everybody saw that when he released Blake, although there's a lot more to that too. Blake wanted out to when he saw his role was going to be reduced. but and then you saw what happened during the season you know take crowd had a good game last

game but he's been pretty bad up until last week.

And then you got the kid McFadden, you know, you got Colitro didn't work out. You know, they tried to give him a shot. And then you bring in Jayless Smith, who definitely was an upgrade last week. And then now you're going to bring a landing. I mean, it's a concern.

The Giants are not very good against the run.

And Joe Shane is given, you know, Wimp Montdell's as many bodies as you could to try

to get in him and try to help him with it.
