  Cowboys | Darian Thompson back from groin injury    Fri Jul 12, 10:24 PM

Dallas Cowboys FS Darian Thompson (groin) participated in minicamp.

Footballguys view: Back in March of this year, the Cowboys re-signed Thompson to a one-year, $720,000 contract. He was a special teams player for them in 2018 and can at least fill that role. We'll see if Thompson can stay healthy and earn more playing time on defense in 2019.

New York Giants CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie will be moved to safety next season and is expected to compete with FS Darian Thompson for a starting job, according to sources.

Footballguys view: This is the aging cover corner plan. The ball skills, instincts, and slightly declining athletic ability can allow them to produce and hang at free safety after their ability to mirror NFL wide receivers on routes is fading.

  Giants | Week 16 injury report for NYG    Fri Dec 22, 05:17 PM

New York Giants LB B.J. Goodson (ankle) and WR Tavarres King (concussion) did not practice Friday, Dec. 22, and they're ruled out for Week 16 against the Arizona Cardinals. S Nat Berhe (hamstring), S Landon Collins (ankle) and DE Jason Pierre-Paul (finger) were limited and are listed as questionable, while CB Brandon Dixon (heel, hamstring), TE Rhett Ellison (groin, finger), OT Ereck Flowers (groin), C Brett Jones (ankle), WR Travis Rudolph (hamstring), S Darian Thompson (knee) and DE Olivier Vernon (not injury related) were removed from the report.

Footballguys view: King being out means that while there are more targets for Roger Lewis and Sterling Shepard, there's also more chance that they'll be covered by Patrick Peterson on any given play. Shepard lines up in the slot, so he's the best Giants wide receiver play this week.

  Giants | Darian Thompson able to do more    Sat Jun 3, 03:17 PM

New York Giants FS Darian Thompson (foot) has been more involved in workouts as the offseason has gone on. He moved well during practice Friday, June 2, and showed flashes of ability.

Footballguys view: A third-round pick out of Boise State in 2016, Thompson made it through two games before a Lisfranc injury that required surgery ended his rookie year. Thompson has a nose for the ball and can snare passes when tested. Having him back healthy only makes a strong secondary that much stronger.
