The New York Giants and Miami Dolphins have set specific "rules of engagement" for their joint practice scheduled for Thursday. Coaches John Harbaugh and Jeff Hafley emphasize a focus on player development and controlled competition rather than trying to outscheme each other. Key points include protecting quarterbacks, avoiding blindside hits, and prioritizing fundamentals and technique over complex plays. The Giants will travel to Miami on Wednesday in preparation for the sessions, which both coaches believe will be crucial for evaluating their rosters before the upcoming preseason game.
