The way rookie cornerbacks Deonte Banks and Tre Hawkins have fit so seamlessly into the New York Giants defense, veteran Adoree Jackson has found himself playing a relatively new position.
Two days later, the Giants took Hawkins in the sixth round out of Old Dominion. It seemed like a selection to add depth to the roster.“I had seen him with the threes and the two’s, but when he did it with the one’s , I don’t want to say it rung my radar, but it was one of those things where you knew he was about his business,” Jackson said of Hawkins.
Darnay Holmes and second-year cornerback Cor’Dale Flott also have helped him make the adjustment, along with watching a lot of film. Coach Brian Daboll said the Giants used Jackson in a lot of positions last season in the secondary, both inside and outside.
