Entire 2024 draft class receives All-Rookie honors from The Athletic's Dane Brugler
The Giants received significant contributions from their first-year players throughout the 2024 campaign.
Ten different rookies played at least one offensive or defensive snap, with the group totaling 4,702 snaps on the season, according to Pro Football Focus. This was just 162 snaps short of the Rams' rookie class for the most in the NFL this season.
This week, The Athletic's Dane Brugler, one of the top draft analysts in the business, released his 2024 NFL All-Rookie Team.
Brugler broke down his selections into three categories for every position: First-Team, Second-Team, and Honorable Mentions. All six of the Giants' 2024 draft picks, along with one undrafted free agent, made it onto the list.
Here are all seven Giants to get All-Rookie honors from The Athletic, along with commentary from Brugler.
First-Team All-Rookie
Wide Receiver: Malik Nabers
"Nabers finished third among all NFL receivers with 109 catches (behind only Ja'Marr Chase and Amon-Ra St. Brown), even though he missed two games. His 1,204 receiving yards ranked seventh in the league, and he was one of the best at making defenders miss in space and moving the chains. Nabers is (already) knocking on the door of being considered a top-five NFL receiver."
Safety: Tyler Nubin
"Nubin led all rookies in tackles (98), even though he missed four games. One of the reasons the Giants drafted him in the top 50 was his ball production in college (13 career interceptions), but he didn't record an interception and registered just one pass breakup as a rookie — those numbers will need to improve next season."
Second-Team All-Rookie
Running Back: Tyrone Tracy Jr.
"In basketball terms, Tracy would be that high-energy sixth man who can swing games when he catches fire. The Purdue product was a threat to rip off an explosive play any time he touched the ball — he finished with six carries of 20-plus yards (one more than Bijan Robinson). Tracy (839 yards) was the only rookie back other than (Bucky) Irving to top 500 yards rushing."
Nickel Cornerback: Dru Phillips
"Phillips was an outstanding run defender this season and flashed in coverage. One of the concerns with him as a prospect was that he produced zero interceptions in 38 career games at Kentucky, so his first career NFL interception in Week 17 great to see."
Honorable Mentions
Tight End: Theo Johnson
Linebacker: Darius Muasau
Defensive Tackle: Elijah Chatman
