  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Returns to New York

    Holmes re-signed with the Giants on Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports. Holmes became primarily a special-teams contributor in 2023, seeing only 115 snaps on defense in 16 regular-season games. Despite the limited work on defense, the UCLA product still recorded two interceptions on the season. He'll now have the opportunity to carve out a bigger role in New York again in 2024.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Reverts to special-teams role

    Holmes played in 16 contests during the regular season, recording 18 tackles (17 solo) and two interceptions. Holmes' 16 games were a career high, but his 115 defensive snaps were by far the fewest he has logged in his four NFL seasons. The UCLA product at least made the most of his limited defensive work with a career-best two pickoffs, and he played well as a special-teamer. Holmes is set to be a free agent for the first time, and the reduction of his work in the secondary may have been an indication of New York's intent to move on from him.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Ready for Sunday

    Holmes (foot) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. The 25-year-old cornerback was held to limited work in practice throughout the week due to a foot injury, but it seems as if he'll be able to play through the issue in New York's season finale. Holmes could also very well see increased work in the Giants' secondary with Deonte Banks (shoulder) listed as doubtful for Sunday's affair.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Dealing with foot issue

    Holmes (foot) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. It's not immediately clear when Holmes sustained the foot injury, but that he practiced at all Wednesday indicates that it's likely not severe. Nevertheless, he'll probably need to practice in full Thursday or Friday in order to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Records pick in loss

    Holmes accumulated six solo tackles and one interception in the Giants' Week 10 loss to the Lions. Holmes picked off Dak Prescott for his first interception of the season and second pass deflection. His six tackles were also a season high by a wide margin. The cornerback was on the field for 39 defensive snaps (51 percent). His ability to carry that momentum going forward will depend on the health of Adoree' Jackson (concussion) and Deonte Banks (ankle).

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: All set for Week 14

    Holmes (shoulder) will be active for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports. Holmes will be back on the field in Week 14 after missing last week's tie with the Commanders while nursing a shoulder injury. He'll return to his depth role on defense and special teams.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Active Week 16

    Holmes (knee) is active for Sunday's game against Baltimore, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. The 22-year-old is suiting up for Sunday's contest after sitting out the past two games with the knee injury. Holmes should reclaim his role as New York's slot cornerback now that he's healthy.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Expected to play Week 16

    Holmes (knee) is expected to be active for the Giants' Week 16 matchup against Baltimore, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. Holmes has missed the Giants' past two games while tending to his knee issue, but it appears the fourth-round rookie is on track to make his 12th appearance of 2020 on Sunday afternoon. Over 44 targets thrown in his direction this season, Holmes has recorded five pass deflections while holding opponents without a touchdown.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Missing second straight game

    Holmes (knee) is ruled out for Sunday night's game against the Giants, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Holmes will miss a second consecutive game due to his lingering knee injury. Fellow rookie Xavier McKinney is the likely favorite to fill in for Holmes at slot cornerback, just as he did last week against the Cardinals.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Sidelined for Week 14

    Holmes (knee) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. The Giants will be without their slot cornerback for Sunday's contest, as Holmes missed practice Friday due to the knee issue. Holmes will miss his second game of the 2020 season, so with the rookie out of UCLA sidelined, look for an expanded role for fellow rookie Xavier McKinney in the secondary for Sunday's game.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Ready for MNF

    Holmes (neck) won't carry an injury designation into Monday's game versus the Buccaneers. Holmes missed last week's game against the Eagles due to a neck injury, but he'll return to action for the primetime matchup. The rookie out of UCLA often handles more than 50 percent of the defensive workload, and he should maintain a similar role Monday night with Tom Brady coming to town.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Sidelined for TNF

    Holmes (neck) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Eagles. Holmes suffered the neck injury in last week's win over Washington, but he was unable to return healthy on a short week. With the rookie out of UCLA sidelined for the first time this season, kick return duties will shift to Darius Slayton, and Corey Ballentine stands to see a slight uptick in depth cornerback snaps Thursday.

  • Giants' Darnay Holmes: Suffers neck injury

    Holmes (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Washington. Holmes has been solid in his rookie campaign with the Giants, racking up 13 tackles (nine solo), 0.5 sacks and two pass breakups this season. He was forced to leave the game late in the second quarter, and as long as Holmes is sidelined, Corey Ballentine should be in line for an uptick in snaps at cornerback, with Darius Slayton taking over as the kick return man.
