Giants' Abdul Carter: 'Bad things' are coming for Commanders' Jayden Daniels
New York Giants LB Abdul Carter says "bad things" are coming for Commanders QB Jayden Daniels in Week 5.
The New York Giants are set to face the Washington Commanders, with Jayden Daniels set to start at quarterback despite suffering a dislocated left elbow. Daniels missed the previous two games, with the Commanders relying on backups Marcus Mariota and rookie Athan Kaliakmanis. However, Mariota recently re-injured his right knee, prompting Washington to revert to Daniels.
Giants players are confident in facing Daniels, with outside linebacker Abdul Carter expressing anticipation for the upcoming matchup. Carter believes Daniels is a talented player capable of both throwing and running, but warns that the Giants' aggressive defense will likely result in "bad things" for him. The Giants' pass rush has been impacted by linebacker Brian Burns' ACL tear, making it crucial for Carter and teammates Kayvon Thibodeaux and Arvell Reese to step up.
Carter remains optimistic, emphasizing the importance of stopping the run and pressuring the quarterback, regardless of the circumstances.
