ArticleGiants 2026 Position Breakdown: Jordan Stout a punter upgrade as John Harbaugh...Captured August 1, 2026

From the article

Gipson, a former Jet, has plenty of experience as a punt returner. He appeared in just one game as a Giant late in 2025, but it's fair to think that Harbaugh can get the most out of him in 2026.

Gipson's veteran punt return experience could flourish under Harbaugh's special teams focus.

Gipson, a former Jet, has plenty of experience as a punt returner and is projected as the Giants' punt returner in 2026. He appeared in just one game as a Giant late in 2025, but the source suggests it's fair to think that new head coach Harbaugh can get the most out of him in 2026, implying upside under the new regime's special teams emphasis.
