Deonte Banks embraces new role with Giants under Dennard Wilson

New York Giants cornerback Deonte Banks is showing improved performance this summer, attributing his growth to increased freedom in his playing style under new defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson. Once considered a draft bust after a tough start to his NFL career, Banks is now working hard to redefine his trajectory. He has expressed enthusiasm about a reset given by the coaching staff, which allows him to play aggressively as a press corner.
