Hey, Giant Fans. Welcome to the Giant Insider podcast. My name is Jerry Foley. I'm a senior editor of Giant Insider newspaper. And with me as always as the beat writer in the heart of Giants Nation, nobody beats the biz. Chris Bizignano. Well, Chris, what a difference 24 hours makes. Yesterday morning, the Saquan Barkley situation, if you want to call it, situation was kind of hovering over the Giants.

Training camp was upon us.

And then 24 hours later, Barclay assigned to a one-year deal where he gets some guaranteed money.

The Giants lock up their franchise left tackle for the next five years.

And, you know, based on the tweets I read from you today, Chris, Training Camp was a smashing

success on all counts.

I mean, you know, Waller, Jones, all of it.

I'll let you go into it because you were there and reporting live.

But, man, what a difference 24 hours makes, dude, no?

Yeah.

I guess we could talk about the Sequin situation first, right? And then from look like he was going to hold out of camp, who knows what he was going to do the regular season, the whole deal. And to, uh, to, uh, to, he almost suddenly signs his franchise to head. Out of nowhere. Makes a little more money. It looks like he could make a little more money out of it. And there he was. Today, running around, you know, doing his thing. Something nobody really expected. But, you know, Joe Shane and his agent from CIA, Ed Berry, kept working at it hard. You know, they didn't just stop talks after the deadline. They kept working on a deal to get him in and uh they got it done you know uh now

look is sequin happy about this deal no i think it's safe to say he's not gonna be you know he's not

going to be he'll be playing issue obviously but probably not a happy camper right um we all know we

know we wanted an extension we wanted more money and all that.

But Joe Shane got it done.

And then obviously the next bombshell was I was on the way to the facility this morning.

And then you just see Andrew Thomas getting his huge contract extension.

Monster. Monster deal.

Something that they would talk a little bit earlier on after the season,

whatever was, and then Andrews said today that it picked up after OTAs.

They really started, you know, negotiating pretty hard.

And they got that done.
