Observations from Giants follow on Monday:
Calvin superb
Calvin Austin III, who spent last 12 months with Aaron Rodgers in Pittsburgh, made a nifty catch down the proper facet of the discipline on a throw from Jaxson Dart late during an 11-on-11 portion of follow.
Afterward, John Harbaugh said Austin gives the Giants “a lot of versatility” as a dependable choice who can play both inside and outside.
Dropping the ball
With the Giants going no-huddle offense close to the finish of the follow, Isaiah Likely had a dangerous drop on a move from Dart.
Caught my eye
In the ongoing kicking competitors, rely Monday as another win for Dominic Zvada.
The rookie, who spent his ultimate two years at Michigan, made all 5 of his kicks, while Ben Sauls went 3-for-5.

The consistency of Zvada this preseason has been a welcome change for the Giants, given their struggles at kicker the last two seasons, and for their followers, who’ve been scarred by the premature accidents of Graham Gano and the embarrassing Younghoe Koo gaffe in which he missed the ball altogether.
While Big Blue still want to identify a winner of the competitors, Zvada — who, like Sauls, made both kicks in the preseason win Saturday — has definitely continued to make his case at this stage of coaching camp.
Injury report
RT Jermaine Eluemunor didn’t follow, but Harbaugh said he should be back Tuesday — as should RG Francis Mauigoa (stinger).
TE Theo Johnson left early after a collision with Kayvon Thibodeaux, but Harbaugh said he didn’t get a report suggesting anything severe and thinks Johnson is OK.
WR Jalin Hyatt also didn’t follow.
