Giants Working On RB Brandon Jacobs Hands

Giants RB Brandon Jacobs wasn't exactly a reliable target out of the backfield for Eli Manning last season - he had only six catches and at least as many drops. The Giants have been trying to force-feed him the ball during practices, and it's worth noting that he said he hasn't dropped a single pass all summer long. "No," Jacobs said. "And I want to keep it that way."

Jacobs having good hands is like shaq being good at free throws.

Well, he's caught EVERYTHING thrown his way so far this season and Jacobs has stated that he was 'annoyed about Jacobs can't catch' labels and he made it a focus this off-season.

So far, he looks like he could give some more DB's nightmares catching the ball out of the backfield.

If Jacobs manages not to drop any balls. DB's are going to have their hands full this year...

If Jacobs would stop giving SoDev a reacharound every night maybe his hands would be less calloused and he could catch better.
