2020 Giants training camp preview: Special teams

The New York Giants will have many new faces on special teams in 2020, so what can we expect from the unit?

For the first time since 2007, the Giants will have someone other than Zak DeOssie sending back the long snaps.

With DeOssie no longer on the team, the role reverts to Casey Kreiter, who the team signed in April.

Kreiter, who originally signed with the Dallas Cowboys as an undrafted rookie free agent out of Iowa following the 2014 NFL Draft, spent two seasons in Arlington before joining the Denver Broncos in 2016. In 2018, he earned his first-ever Pro Bowl appearance.

At the time of Kreiter’s signing, the Giants also had long snappers Colin Holba and Drew Scott, but both have since been cut.

Several other Giants offensive linemen may try their hand at long snapping in training camp, but Kreiter appears to be the shoo-in for the starting job.
