line for possible start 1

Giants quarterbacks coach Jerry Schuplinski and reserve offensive lineman Wes Martin tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday, coach Joe Judge said.

Both were quarantined in Arizona as the Giants contact-traced to determine any close contacts.

The team is staying in Tucson, Ariz., and practicing at the University of Arizona ahead of Sunday’s game at the Los Angeles Chargers.

Judge said Jake Fromm, signed last Tuesday off the Buffalo Bills’ practice squad, will take first-team reps in practice as long as Daniel Jones (neck) and Mike Glennon (concussion) aren’t healthy.

Fromm, a 2020 fifth-round pick out of Georgia, has never played in an NFL game. He was Buffalo’s fourth string quarterback behind Josh Allen, Mitchell Trubisky and former Giants third-round pick Davis Webb.

Fromm, 23, dressed in an NFL game for the first time this past Sunday as Glennon’s backup in a 20-9 loss at the Miami Dolphins.

The Chargers placed wideout Keenan Allen on the Covid list, as well.
