WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — The Giants on Wednesday held their first training camp practice under coach John Harbaugh. So let’s bring you some takeaways from this practice at The Greenbrier resort, where the Giants are holding their first two weeks of camp. • Malik Nabers looks good: He didn’t fully participate in practice, but he showed plenty of encouraging signs, as he rehabs his torn ACL. Click here for more on what Nabers did Wednesday, when it continued to remain unclear whether he will be ready for Week 1. • Cam Skattebo is back: As the Giants planned, he fully participated in Wednesday’s practice. He is coming off that serious ankle injury, but barring a setback, he will be ready for Week 1. Click here for more on what Harbaugh thought about how Skattebo moved Wednesday — and also what general manager Joe Schoen thought about Skattebo’s failed backflip. • Jaxson Dart’s first day: This time a year ago, Dart was behind Russell Wilson (remember him?) as a rookie on the Giants’ depth chart. You know how all that wound up unfolding in 2025. On Wednesday, the Giants kicked off Dart’s second NFL camp with a no-pads, no-contact practice. (Not that the contact part matters for Dart.) So what went well for Dart on Wednesday? Some impressions from team periods: Dart executed a crisp pass over the middle to Braxton Berrios. Facing pressure, Dart nicely lofted a throw to Chris Manhertz, over Abdul Carter’s coverage. Terrific touch there. Dart later found a wide-open Darius Slayton deep, after Slayton beat Paulson Adebo. Dart led Slayton with that ball. Dart rolled right and zipped a pass to a sliding Isaiah Likely for a 15-yard gain. Another moment of nice touch. And where did Dart struggle at times? (Again, just one day of camp here, so don’t read too much into any of this.) He badly overthrew Odell Beckham deep down the sideline. During 7-on-7 drills, Dart almost tossed an interception to Jevon Holland — but Holland dropped it. An awful, sailed pass. Four reps later, Tremaine Edmunds was unable to haul in another should-have-been pick by Dart. Dart did connect with Likely on a 7-on-7 pass, but Adebo might have broken it up, had he been more aggressive. • Paulson Adebo’s rough day: Just one day, but he continues to very much not look like a No. 1 corner. That was the case last year. We mentioned those two moments above with his coverage (or lack thereof) on Slayton and Likely. Near the end of practice, Calvin Austin pulled in a 25-yard pass from Dart. Austin slid as he caught the ball. Nice play there. He had beaten Adebo to get open. Meanwhile, Greg Newsome continued to work as the first-team cornerback opposite Adebo. Don’t be surprised if intriguing rookie Colton Hood winds up pushing for one of those starting jobs — perhaps during the season, even if Hood doesn’t start in Week 1. • Field goal battle: Ben Sauls emerged from the spring well behind Dominic Zvada. On Wednesday, Sauls showed improvement, ev
