Giants PFF grades: Best and worst performers from preseason loss vs. Jets

The New York Giants put a stamp on their 2023 preseason schedule with a 32-24 loss to the New York Jets on Saturday night that saw eight players go down hurt, seven of whom would not return.

The game largely featured reserves as head coach Brian Daboll sought to get one last look at bubble players. Cuts will come over the next several days as teams around the league trim their rosters to 53.
