EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – When Bobby Okereke knew last week he would miss his first game in two seasons with the Giants, he offered guidance to Micah McFadden, who would replace him as the player receiving and then relaying the defensive calls from coordinator Shane Bowen.
Though he was then the team's leading tackler, Okereke's advice was not, "hit the guy with the ball."
"He warned me throughout the week," McFadden said. "He said, 'Dude, I would hit a couple of extra sprints at practice just to make sure your wind is there.' Because you're talking a lot, too. There's not just a play call. Sometimes, Shane might want a talking point made to somebody on a specific play. You could be saying multiple things right before the snap and then you gotta get yourself ready and aligned to go do your job successfully, too.
"It definitely felt different being the guy calling the plays. It's a big responsibility. I honestly enjoyed doing it when I was out there. It's different and I hadn't done it since preseason."
McFadden handled his duties expertly. Though the Giants lost to the New Orleans Saints, 14-11, he led the team with 11 tackles (eight solo), including a career-high five stops for lost yardage. According to the NFL, McFadden was the fifth player in the last five seasons with five tackles for loss in a single game.
"Micah played well," coach Brian Daboll said. "He was productive, fast to the ball, tackled well. Micah played a good game."
McFadden is third on the Giants with 91 tackles, six fewer than the career high he set in 2023, his second NFL season. That includes 47 solo stops and six for loss, plus 2.0 sacks and five quarterback hits. Rookie safety Tyler Nubin leads the Giants with 97 tackles, but he was placed on injured reserve yesterday and will miss the final four games. Okereke is next with 93 stops, but his availability for this week and the next three is uncertain because of a back injury. With safety Jason Pinnock fourth on the team with 59 tackles, chances are good McFadden will be the team leader at season's end.
And with Okereke still sidelined, McFadden will wear the green dot on his helmet signifying he is the chief communicator in the defensive huddle on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens in MetLife Stadium. And that job includes more duties than is widely known.
As Okereke warned him, McFadden must be cognizant of the job's vocal requirements.
"When Bobby was out there, there were times I'm echoing the call just as loud, if not louder, because I know he's tired," McFadden said. "There's a little crossover responsibility there. As long as you're loud and we can get the call in time and everybody can get aligned quickly, we can be successful and play fast."
Bowen said McFadden handled his new obligation well.
"There's a lot that goes into it," Bowen said. "It's the play call, obviously. On top of that are all the things I'm telling him to tell other people throughout. And then making the calls once the formation comes out. It's pretty much talking throughout until the ball is snapped and then you're playing and then you're back in it and you're doing the same thing over and over again. You gotta be in shape to do it. The unit's counting on you to be able to get out what we need to get out. I thought he did a really good job."
Not only do the calls constantly change due to down, distance and the offensive personnel, but how quickly Bowen delivers them can also be dictated by the opposing team.
"If they're going tempo, we might be in a little bit of a rush," McFadden said. "We have some signals, and we have stuff that we can go off of just to make sure we're all getting a line that we can communicate."
Since NFL games are played in large stadiums with noisy crowds, it's common for some players not to hear the huddle call – assuming they actually join the huddle.
"It happens fast and those DBs get down the field and then they're coming back in late, and Micah is getting it to everybody else and trying to get it relayed," Bowen said. "The days of all 11 in a huddle and then breaking and going aren't around so much anymore. So, the tempo part of it has to be good and those other guys have to help him. They got to make sure we're relaying the call and getting it to everybody, and make sure we're on the same page."
McFadden said the vocal work doesn't end with reciting the call, because not everyone hears it. But Okereke helped prepare him for those that need a repeat.
"There's usually one," McFadden said. "There's always a corner or somebody who says, 'What's the call, what's the call?' And you gotta get it out to him again. Bobby sometimes would just not say anything, and he'd let me take over the responsibility of echoing the call.
"There's always situations like that. You just gotta make sure you're being loud, make sure you're communicating and as long as we're all doing the same thing and playing the same call, we can't be wrong."
Soon after the game last Sunday ended, McFadden called Okereke.
"He was obviously encouraging," McFadden said. "It was funny, I told him, 'Look, I understand now, I feel your pain and I appreciate how many times you've been out there.' We've been in situations where we've been on the field for a while and it's a 17-play drive and he's still gotta talk and communicate and then go play fast and make the plays that he does. I told him I have some appreciation for what he does on a week-to-week basis."

*Evan Neal, who has started the last four games at right tackle, returned to practice on a limited basis after sitting out yesterday's session. Neal is recuperating from hip and ankle injuries.
The other five players who sat out yesterday did not work today: quarterback Drew Lock (heal/left elbow), guard Jon Runyan (ankle), defensive lineman Rakeem Nunez-Roches (neck/shoulder), Okereke (back) and cornerback Dru Phillips (shoulder).
The Giants do not know if Lock will be healthy enough to be Tommy DeVito's backup Sunday. If not, it will be Tim Boyle.
*Cornerback Art Green (quad) practiced fully after he was limited yesterday. But with the addition of Neal, the Giants still had 12 players who were limited. The group includes wide receiver Malik Nabers (hip); tackles Jermaine Eluemunor (quad), Chris Hubbard (knee) and Joshua Ezeudu (knee); center John Michael Schmitz (neck); cornerbacks Tae Banks (rib) and Cor'Dale Flott (quad); safety Dane Belton (knee); defensive lineman Jordon Riley (knee); and guard Austin Schlottmann, who is in 21-day window to return from injured reserve. He fractured his fibula in the preseason.
*Eluemunor, who missed the last two games, said he will play against Baltimore on Sunday. He began his career with the Ravens in 2017-18.
"I'm playing, I wouldn't miss Baltimore," Eluemunor said. "I tried to get in last week, but I think by not playing last week it gave me a little bit more time to heal, so I could get out there and play close to 100 percent. Just go out there and have fun against my former team. I don't like missing playing against Baltimore (and) the opportunity to go out there and play against guys that I got drafted with and coaches I've been around. It will be cool."
*Special teams coach Michael Ghobrial today spoke publicly for the first time since Graham Gano's potential game-tying 35-yard field goal attempt was blocked by New Orleans' Bryan Bresse with eight seconds remaining last week.
"Credit to New Orleans," Ghobrial said. "They executed an interior jumper. Our guard stayed down. We got to be better in that situation. They did a nice job jumping, clearing it and then being able to get their hands up. We got to make sure that we hit a higher ball. We also got to make sure in that situation that we're rising up to make sure that we don't get those interior jumpers."
Should Gano have elevated the ball more than he did?
"We're always trying to get good rise on the ball," Ghobrial said. "So, there's a combination of errors. Those situations are starting to rise a little bit more with how people are attacking you from a field goal block standpoint. You're starting to get more guys that do that interior jumper in those got-to-have-it situations. You're also seeing guys chop. Guys are trying to chop guys that try and stay down. So, obviously, you're being attacked a different way and it's our job to make sure that we don't let that happen."
