Malachi Fields caught all three passes thrown to him for 34 yards and a touchdown in his first NFL game, after moving up the Giants' receiver group in training camp.
The Giants lost their preseason opener 13-10 at MetLife Stadium, scoring all 10 points in the second quarter. Jaxson Dart was evaluated for a concussion and returned to throw a touchdown.
Harbaugh has refused twice to say whether Jaxson Dart plays Saturday. The last time Dart faced Brian Flores' defense, he threw for 33 yards and was sacked five times.
Zvada went undrafted after a 68% final season at Michigan. Pre-draft reports pointed to short-range accuracy, not leg strength — the exact thing the Giants say they reworked.
Baltimore blew 18 double-digit second-half leads under Harbaugh, the most under one coach since 1991. Two came in his 11 playoff losses. The Giants blew five fourth-quarter leads last season.
By all accounts, Zvada is leading the Giants' kicker competition — more accurate in camp, bigger leg. Chris Horton says both have made real progress.
Free agent CB Terrion Arnold, facing eight felony charges, visited the Giants Wednesday as three projected cornerbacks were out of practice.
The Giants open the preseason Saturday with a new staff, a first-round tackle and a fullback from Baltimore. Brandon Jacobs is the last Giant who made physical football the team's identity.
Nine of 10 camp practices, no new setback, and a second-surgery date reporters can't get him to confirm. What Nabers' return actually tells us — and doesn't.
