On this edition of New York Giants Big Blue Bylines, we discuss how Eli Apple is faster and how Geno Smith is rapidly falling behind.

That’s right. “We,” you and everybody who knows what football is continue to talk about Odell Beckham Jr. missing the New York Giants voluntary offseason training activies.
