New York Giants 2022 Training Camp Roster Preview: CB Darnay Holmes
It seems as if since birth, Darnay Holmes was destined to play in the National Football League. Holmes is a second-generation professional football player whose father, Darick, played in the NFL from 1995 to 1999.
Coming out of Calabasas High School, the younger Holmes was a five-star recruit that was the 22nd-ranked player in the nation. Holmes was at UCLA from 2017 to 2019, where he was an instant impact player that started 33 of his 35 career games. After his college career, Holmes would play in the 2020 Senior Bowl before entering the NFL Draft.
As a rookie, the Giants' fourth-round pick in 2020 saw time in 12 games, with five starts. Holmes would play 11 games with four starts in his second season in 2021. Unfortunately, a ribs injury ended his sophomore campaign prematurely, and the Giants used that roster spot to sign quarterback Jake Fromm to reinforce the quarterback depth in the wake of the Daniel Jones injury.
