It can be really hard not to read too much into the issues an 0-2 NFL team has after losing a game they were inches from winning.
But then there’s what’s going on with the New York Giants, which feels a little alarming considering the pressure on the franchise heading into 2021.
During the 30-29 loss to the Washington Football Team, NFL Network cameras caught receiver Kenny Golladay yelling at … someone. Was it Daniel Jones? Was it at a coach? Either way, the Giant who signed in the offseason with — I would imagine — the assumption that he was WR1 for them looked really frustrated during another quiet game for him.

Jones brushed it off, but … that can’t be good.
Daniel Jones says Kenny Golladay was “frustrated” with situation. Part of it had to do with Golladay wanting the ball. Jones said they talked after game. Have great relationship. He appreciates the passion and emotion. Didn’t think KG was showing him up. “Everything good.”

Then there’s Kadarius Toney, the first-round pick out of Florida who New Jersey Advance Media reported had a confrontation with head coach Joe Judge and who reportedly posted a deleted Instagram post that read, “I don’t be mad, [expletive] just be lame to me.”
Kadarius Toney, a rookie, is already apparently frustrated with his role, and not hiding it either.
From a source: "No use in having a sports car and not driving it.”

Yeah, that’s not good. And it’s only Week 2.
