Kenny Goladay's frustration begins to manifest at Giants camp

Recording every move Kenny Goladay makes looks like this: Perhaps the fact that he showed emotion after not playing is a sign of progress.

Frustrations are better than flatlines, aren't they?

Giant's high-paid, low-productivity wide, his receiver Golladay, is on Tuesday's unpadded team during practice. On his second snap of his drill, he got a pass from Daniel Jones. Cornerback Adley Jackson reached into the cover and shoved the ball out of Golladay's hands. Perhaps this was determined to be an incomplete path. Perhaps it would have gone down as a catch and a fumble. Either way, it was a summer ofnon-positive developments for Golladay, not a favorable one.

He picked up the ball and slammed it with both Move both hands as if to crush the air and toss the opposite end in the direction of his zone.

"It pisses me off," said Golladay. "I went in there and grabbed it and Adley just came in and made a play and fumbled it a little bit. So yeah it was a big completion for us so I Overpaid in the four-year, $72 million contract that the Desperate Giants handed him over last year, Golladay had consecutive 1,000-yard receiving yards with the Lions and 11 in 2019. He led the NFL in receiving touchdowns, but he consistently fell short of the ranks of the NFL's elite players.

His slump in the first preseason game of the year was overstated. In 17 snaps, Golladay was targeted three times and gained 6 yards on one pass, with the most notable point being the Patriots' 2-yard line, a low 15 from Jones. was the third down drop of a catchable ball.

"I wish I had come up with it," said Goladay, but ran alongside rookies Wandale Robinson and Colin Johnson. He pointed out that he might question the route.

"I'm kind of trying to give them some time, but at the end of the day, I have to play," Goladay said.

More troubling than that downfall is what the 28-year-old Golladay saw throughout his training camp. If there is no number on the jersey and the player's identity is unknown, everyone sees Golladay every day, he is a tall receiver, does not show much bursts, does not achieve much separation, and is in the air. He fights hard to win the ball at , and does nothing to make anyone think he's special.

He hadn't caught a fish in a long time — actually .

"I think you probably know the receivers here. If they don't actually get the ball, you can see it in their body language," Goladay said. “So I take it as a challenge and just figure out other ways I can pop — at least on tape. You could go, you blocked Wanderle, or you just won a one-on-one match, but you didn't get the ball.

Under his contract, Golladay is not going anywhere this season, so the Giants have to figure out a way to make it work. Head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Shane were at Buffalo last year, and they inherited Golladay. "I agree with you."

"You focus on everything," Dabor said. "Practice. Ultimately, it's a game. It's time to go live. But now it's all about competition. So those who are doing their best. Again, your best is my best."

In 14 games of his debut season for the Giants, Golladay had 37 receptions for 521 yards and no touchdowns. It's no secret that he didn't think the offense brought out the best in him, but otherwise prefers to avoid questions about 2021. it's something," he said.

He was asked if the Giants had ever seen the "real" Kenny Goladay.

"No, I don't think so," he said. . "Last year in New Orleans, he may have had six catches for 116 yards, but I think he has a lot to prove."
