Giants Music Playlist vs. Browns

Giants.com — Fri, 05 Oct 2012 18:08:10 +0000

Every Friday, we’re asking some Giants players what’s playing in their headphones. This is what they had to say this week before they take on the Browns at home:

OT Will Beatty
Troy Sneed – ‘Lay it Down’
“Listen to the song, and then you’ll know [why I listen to it].”

G Chris Snee
David Diehl’s Gameday Mix
“Gamedays I listen to Diehl’s music because it’s blasting so loud. It’s Guns N’ Roses, it’s everything. I don’t think he realizes the headphones don’t work because I can hear every word.”

LB Jacquian Williams
R. Kelly – ‘The World’s Greatest’
“It keeps me calm, I like that, to be prepared, to be calm.”

S Will Hill
Lil Wayne – ‘No Worries’
“Well, right now, I don’t have any worries. It’s in the name.”

S Tyler Sash
Mykko Montana feat. K. Champ – ‘Do It’
“My brother shared it with me, and it’s just something that I like to work out to and gets me hyped.”
