New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll has heard what disgruntled wide receiver Kenny Golladay said about his lack of playing time in the first two games, and he doesn’t mind hearing his thoughts on the matter. 

In fact, the first-year head coach seems to like it. 

"I’ve been in the NFL a long time," Daboll told The New York Post on Thursday. "I don’t know that I’ve ever been part of any team where someone’s not happy about something. I have great respect for Kenny. I’m glad he’s not happy he didn’t play, that shows competitiveness."

"Of course you know I really don’t agree with it or like it, but I can only control what I control. That’s coming to work every day," Golladay said via The Athletic. 

"I should be playing regardless.… That’s a fact."

Instead, it was guys like Richie James and
