All the same ingredients that led to the worst game of Evan Neal’s football career could combine again Sunday to form the perfect measuring stick for his progress.
Under the MetLife Stadium lights, against the Cowboys, in a nationally televised matchup with DeMarcus Lawrence, Neal allowed five quarterback pressures and three sacks in the third game of his rookie season with the Giants.“I’ve never had a performance like that,” Neal told The Post after Tuesday’s practice. “I’m not going to get mad because I put the tape on and see myself struggle. You want to be able to learn from your mistakes.
“I don’t get mad because it was me,” Neal said. “I was the one out there playing and responsible for my performance. That’s a year ago.” It is foolish to just assume that Neal — who was ranked as the No. 80 offensive tackle last season by Pro Football Focus — will take a big step forward just because fellow top-10 pick and SEC alum Andrew Thomas did after his rookie struggles.
Neal is confident that — even after missing a week of camp with a concussion — he is set up for success after training with former All-Pro tackle Willie Anderson.
