The NFL 2025 draft is less than two weeks away, and one of this year’s best prospects left a clue on the team he hopes to land.
The former Penn State passes corridor, Abdul Carter, is projected widely to be one of the first players outside the board on April 25, and New York giants have the third general selection.
Carter added to the speculation that he hopes to use a blue uniform in his rookie season sharing an image of the great Lawrence Taylor of the giants on social networks.

The photo of the Hall of Fame on Carter’s X account on Friday was accompanied by the appointment: “Once a giant, always a giant.” The owner of the deceased giants, Wellington Mara, is attributed to coin the phrase.
This week’s visit is not the first time that Carter interacts with the giants. Star Edge corridor also had breakfast with the chief coach of the giants, Brian Daboll, earlier this month, according to multiple reports.

Taylor was included in the Hall of Fame of Professional Soccer in 1999. He played for giants for the entire historic 13 -year -old career and is widely considered one of the best players who have ever used a uniform of the giants.

The 132½ sacks of Taylor occupy second place in the list of all the giants. The 9½ captures he had during his rookie season in 1981 are not included in the total because the bags were not considered an official statistic at that time.
Carter accumulated 23 captures during his three seasons with the Nittany Lions and received the honors of the Big Ten defensive player after a strong 2024 campaign.

Carter fought for a shoulder injury during the university football playoff. It was also recently revealed that he is dealing with a stress reaction in his foot. However, it is unlikely that Carter needs to undergo surgery to address the problem, Espn reported.
If Carter ends with the giants, he would join a defensive line that already presents Brian Burns, Kayvon Thibodeaux and Dexter Lawrence.
