Abdul Carter missed the Giants' OTA meeting meant to address fallout from Jaxson Dart's introduction of President Donald Trump at a rally, leaving the player who publicly criticized Dart out of the room.
Team leaders including Jameis Winston and Brian Burns urged players to ignore outside noise and stress the locker room's "brotherhood," with reports saying the team is trying to move forward.
Carter had posted and later deleted criticism of Dart on X before saying the two were "good," but his absence for Eid-al-Adha raised doubts about whether the issue was fully settled.
Friday will bring the Giants' first media availability since the dispute began, offering the next test of whether the locker room has actually put the episode behind it.
