  "summary": "The New York Giants have made their decision on the No. 2 wide receiver position, selecting veteran Darnell Mooney to be the team's second starter next to Malik Nabers. Despite Mooney's recent struggles, with only 32 catches for 443 yards and one touchdown in 2025, the Giants have deemed him worthy of the role. This choice may come as a surprise to some, as the team also showed interest in rookie Malachi Fields and returning star Odell Beckham. However, with only four wide receivers on the 53-man roster, there should be ample opportunity for all four players to see significant playing time. The Giants have also included practice squad veterans Braxton Berrios and Charlie Jones, who could be called upon for additional snaps as needed.",
