2026 New York Giants NFL Combine Meeting Tracker: Every Player the Giants Spoke With

In this story:
The New York Giants figure to be busy this week with the annual NFL combine underway in Indianapolis.
New head coach John Harbaugh, general manager Joe Schoen, and the rest of the coaches and scouts will be knee-deep in meetings with prospects from the over 300 college players invited to the combine, as well as taking in the on-field workouts scheduled throughout the week.
Every NFL team is afforded up to 45 formal meetings with prospects at the combine, which consist of a variety of activities aimed at getting to know the players and how they think.
The Giants? They aren’t exactly rebuilding from the ground floor, as they have a solid young core in place on both sides of the ball. But at the same time, they still need some help in various areas, including…
- Wide receiver: Wan’Dale Robinson is set to hit free agency and could end up out of the Giants’ price range. Meanwhile, Malik Nabers is still working his way back from an ACL injury, and Jalin Hyatt hasn’t panned out. The Giants could really use another X-receiver type to complement a healthy receiver, as well as a potential slot option to replace Robinson if he leaves.
- Tight End: Daniel Bellinger and Chris Manhertz are both set to be unrestricted free agents. If the Giants move to more 12-personnel, as was the case with the Ravens teams under Harbaugh, getting another all-purpose tight end on the roster is going to be a top priority.
- Linebacker: There remains a strong possibility that the Giants move on from Bobby Okereke in what would be a cap-driven move. Even if they don’t, Okereke is entering the final year of his deal, whereas Micah McFadden, the other starting inside linebacker, is a pending UFA. This is a deep linebacker class, and it would be shocking if the Giants don’t dip into it.
- Offensive Line: A team can never have too many offensive linemen in development, and right now, the Giants don’t have many of those. While Big Blue figures to address any vacancies that open via free agency, getting guys into development is going to be key.
- Cornerback: The Giants don’t have an established CB1, and their best cornerback from last year, Cor’Dale Flott, might be on the way out the door via free agency. This team desperately needs versatile corners who can function equally well in man and zone coverage.
Be sure to bookmark this tracker as we give you those players with whom the Giants meet at the combine, along with a short write-up on each prospect. (Newest meetings will appear at the top.)
WR Jordyn Tyson, Arizona State

Is a potential reunion between Arizona State teammates Cam Skattebo and Jordyn Tyson in the cards?
Time will, of course, tell, but Tyson reportedly met with the Giants during the combine. Tyson, who played his first year of college ball at Colorado before transferring to Arizona State, has appeared in 33 games and has 158 receptions for 2,282 yards and 22 touchdowns over his career.
The knock on Tyson has been his injury history, which has included a multi-ligament knee injury suffered in 2022 at Colorado, the rehab from which carried over into the 2023 season, a broken collarbone in 2024 that kept him out of the postseason, and a late-2025 season hamstring injury, which, per Dane Brugler of The Athletic, is why Tyson was not planning to work out at the combine.
Tyson’s best season was in 2024, in which he logged 1,101 receiving yards on 75 receptions. His numbers dipped last year, Tyson catching 61 balls for 711 yards.
RB Jeremiyah Love, Notre Dame

Love confirmed for reporters that he met with the Giants and spoke glowingly of the franchise during his podium time at the combine.
“It would mean the world just being able to play with other great players,” he said. “I feel like every single team in the NFL has great players. So being able to be drafted anywhere would be a great honor.
“But the Giants and in general, I mean, being able to play with a back like (Cam Skattebo)... I mean, have somebody that's more of a veteran to me, somebody that's older than me, that I can learn from. I mean, I'd be able to take away a lot from that.”
Love is widely regarded as the top running back in this year’s class. He posted back-to-back 1,000-yard rushing seasons in 2024 and 2025, both times leading the Independent Conference.
In 41 games, he has 2,882 rushing yards on 433 carries and 36 touchdowns. As a receiver, he has 63 receptions for 594 yards and six touchdowns.
Love said he enjoyed getting to know the Giants coaches during his meeting.
“I like them a lot. I feel like they like me back, too. Hopefully, they call my name on draft night. and we can continue the relationship,” he said.
WR Carnell Tate, Ohio State

Tate, who is among the top receivers in this year’s draft class, confirmed he met with the Giants this week at the combine.
Tate is PFF’s second-highest graded receiver among the draft-eligible receivers from the Big Ten, his 875 receiving yards second behind Lemon’s in the conference.
Tate told reporters he would welcome the opportunity to join the Giants and play alongside Malik Nabers.
“I came from playing with another receiver to go out there and play along with another receiver. It'd be a great opportunity, especially playing in New York,” he said.
“I would love to go out there and play in New York.”
Tate believes he offers a team the complete package at receiver.
“Everything–mindset, the catching, the route running, the blocking… I'm the best receiver in the draft class. I'm able to manipulate DBs; I can catch over DBs. I got a feel for working the sideline. Also showed up when blocking corners. Whatever you need, I've got it.”
In three seasons, one of which saw the Buckeyes winning a national championship, Tate has appeared in 39 games and has 121 receptions for 1,872 yards and 14 touchdowns. His best campaign was last year when he posted a career-high 875 yards on 51 receptions, one less reception than he had in 2024.
WR Makai Lemon, USC

The receiver-needy Giants held a meeting with USC receiver Makai Lemon, who confirmed that he met with the Giants at the combine and that “it would be a huge blessing” to join the Giants' receivers corps headlined by Malik Nabers.
Lemon, per PFF, is the highest-graded, draft-eligible receiver in the Big Ten (90.8), and his 1,156 receiving yards lead.
The 5-foot-11, 195-pound receiver has equal experience as both a slot receiver and on the outside, and is likely viewed as a potential replacement for pending UFA Wan’Dale Robinson.
In three seasons for the Trojans, Leomon appeared in 33 games and recorded 137 receptions for 2,008 yards and 14 touchdowns. He topped the 1,000-yard mark this past season (1,156 yards), a career high, to go along with a career-high 79 receptions.
CB Will Lee III, Texas A&M

Will Lee, a 6-foot-1 and 189-pound boundary cornerback, confirmed that he met with the Giants at the combine.
Lee told reporters that the Giants were “picking my brain” during their meeting and testing his ball knowledge by seeing how fast he could remember plays.
Lee, who called himself a “fast learner” who picks up things quickly, also said that the meeting went well and that he could definitely help the Giants if they pick him.
“I’m a physical corner, someone who is consistent and can work at a high level,” he said. “If you need me to be that No. 1 corner, I can do it; I’ve done it at every level. I know everything it takes to get it done.”
Lee, who played one season at Kansas State, has appeared in 36 games and has 134 tackles, four interceptions (one for a touchdown), and 24 career pass breakups.
CB Davison Igbinosun, Ohio State

Ohio State Davison Igbinosum confirmed that he met with the Giants at the combine.
The chance for Igbinosun to play for the home team would be a dream come true for Igbinosun, who attended Union High School in Union Township, New Jersey.
“I wouldn’t mind that at all,” he told reporters at the combine. It was nice talking to the whole team. “Growing up as a kid, of course, I had dreams of playing for the home team.
Igbinosun began his college career at Ole Miss in 2022, but has since spent the last three seasons with Ohio State. Overall, he’s appeared in 56 games and has 194 tackles, 7 pass breakups, and four career interceptions.
He stands 6-foot-2 and weighs 193 pounds, making him one of the taller cornerbacks in this year’s deep class.
CB Jermod McCoy, Tennessee

McCoy confirmed for reporters that he met with the Giants at the combine, saying that Giants head coach John Harbaugh is “a cool guy” and that they had a good meeting and that they taught him a lot. McCoy mentioned that he likes the defense the Giants are planning to run and feels he will “fit there good.”
McCoy is skipping workouts and positional drills at the combine, according to ESPN draft analyst Jordan Reid. The young cornerback is currently in the latter stages of his rehab from a torn ACL he suffered in January 2025, which cost him all of last season.
McCoy, in two college seasons (one at Oregon State), has appeared in 25 games and has 75 career tackles, 16 pass breakups, and six interceptions in those games.
CB Mansoor Delane, LSU

Delane, who grew up a Ravens fan, told reporters that it was surreal for him to be in the same room with John Harbaugh, now the Giants head coach. Delane is among the top cornerback prospects in this year’s draft class and is widely regarded as a potential Day 1 starter.
Delane is versatile enough to play in both press and man coverage, though press is his stronger suit. He offers elite speed and does a good job of watching the quarterback from start to throw, which in turn rarely results in him being fooled.
The Giants are in need of a legitimate lockdown cornerback, and Delane has shown the traits to be that guy for whoever does invest a draft pick in him.
LB Sonny Styles, Ohio State

No surprise here as Styles, who confirmed that he had a formal meeting with the Giants on Tuesday night, is among the top linebackers in this year's draft class. New head coach John Harbaugh's Ravens teams have long featured a solid man in the middle, like Ray Lewis, Bart Scott, C.J. Mosley, and Patrick Queen.
The Giants appear to be at a crossroads with their starting inside linebacker spot. Bobby Okereke could be a cap cut, and Micah McFadden is a pending unrestricted free agent. The Giants are almost certain to dip into what's a talent-rich class at this position.
Styles's missed tackle rate (2.2%) among 120 draft-eligible linebackers who played a minimum of 480 snaps. He's allowed just two touchdowns in four seasons in coverage and has a respectable 92.5 NFL coverage rating.
Styles also brings versatility, having played on the line, in the box, at free safety, and in the slot, all positions where he's been productive. The versatility and production alone are enough to love in this prospect.

LB Anthony Hill, Jr., Texas

Hill is another linebacker we like for the Giants. His production has improved year over year, posting 69 tackles, seven tackles for loss, four sacks, two interceptions, and three forced fumbles in Texas’s blitz-happy role.
His biggest improvement from 2024 to 2025 was a decrease in his missed tackles, which went from 15.3% to 4.5%, a testament to his commitment to finishing tackles. Hill is a three-down linebacker who plays with good control, speed, sideline-to-sideline range, and instincts. NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein has compared Hill to Bobby Wagner and opined that Hill is one of the “safer linebackers" in this year’s class.
Hill’s formal meeting was first reported by NorthJersey.com.
DL Peter Woods, Clemson

Woods is only 20, but he’s been playing the game since he was 5. He plays with good explosiveness and is someone who can be plugged in just about anywhere on the defensive line. In August of last year, ESPN’s Field Yates described Woods as a “chaos causer” who can line up and rush from multiple spots.
In 35 games, Woods has 84 tackles, 14.5 tackles for loss, 5.0 sacks, and two forced fumbles.
His formal meeting was first reported by NorthJersey.com.
This is a developing story. Post will be updated as more meetings are revealed throughout the week.
