| ARTICLE 45 INJURY PROTECTION Section 1. Qualification: A player qualifying under the following criteria will receive an Injury Protection benefit in accordance with Section 2 below: (a) The player must have been physically unable, because of a severe football injury in an NFL game or practice, to participate in all or part of his Club’s last game of the season of injury, as certified by the Club physician following a physical examination after the last game; or the player must have undergone Club-authorized surgery in the off-season following the season of injury; and (b) The player must have undergone whatever reasonable and customary rehabilitation treatment his Club required of him during the off-season following the season of injury; and (c) The player must have failed the preseason physical examination given by the Club physician for the season following the season of injury because of such injury and as a result his Club must have terminated his contract for the season following the season of injury. This preseason physical may be given by the Club physician prior to the beginning of preseason camp, so long as such fact is clearly communicated in writing to the player at the time of the physical exam. The preseason physical examination given for qualification need not be the entire Standard Minimum Preseason Physical Examination, but shall be that necessary and appropriate to evaluate the injury for which the benefit is sought. Section 2. Benefit: A player qualifying under Section 1 above will receive an amount equal to 50% of his Paragraph 5 Salary for the season following the season of injury, up to a maximum payment of: $1,000,000, in the 2011–12 League Years; $1,050,000, in the 2013–14 League Years; $1,100,000, in the 2015–16 League Years; $1,150,000, in the 2017–18 League Years; and $1,200,000, in the 2019–2020 League Years; in each case unless he has individually negotiated more injury protection or a larger guaranteed salary in his contract. The benefit will be paid to the player in equal weekly installments commencing no later than the date of the first regular season game, which benefit payments will cease if the player signs a contract for that season with another Club. |
Snee wants to play football. Not everyone acts like you all would.

p.s.-- I want to play football, too. But I don't think that's reason enough for the Giants to give me a roster spot for training camp.
Just because it doesn't fit your thesis, doesn't mean it isn't true..Do you really think an 11 year vet OL needs OTAs and minicamp? I mean really?
From ESPN, three days ago:
Take off the blue-colored glasses, Doc.
He is missing OTA practices because he simply can't go everyday.
Do you really think one month will make that big a difference? The guy can't go full-out on June 12. Do you really think he'll be 100% by July 21? Milton makes a valid point in his OP. The Giants should be looking to move on from Snee, a great player in his time, but whose time has pretty much passed.
You're being obtuse by not comprehnding THAT
That conjecture is spot on, but Snee(if healthy) technically not needing anything more than camp and games, is not?
I am ONLY addressing Snee for the purposes of THIS thread..Just because Snee would have gotten "all the reps" under TC doesn't mean all that much to me..TC played ALL his starters for game 16 in 2007(which I agreed with, btw) while MANY other coached would not have..So as much as I love TC, not all coaches operate the way he does, so people throwing in his quotes about OTAs, etc., doesn't say all that much to me
That's assuming he's healthy enough for a full compliment of camp work, which is a pretty big assumption at this point.
Of course it doesn't. It doesn't fit your narrative about OTAs.
That has zero bearing on Snee's situation in the Spring of 2014, but thanks for the memories.
Again, it doesn't fit your narrative so you just choose to ignore it.
lol
If I wasn't clear on that, well, that's on me..I thought I was being quite clear..
Im not sure if Milton is right. He could be. We'll find out. But clearly Snee is receiving extra special treatment because of his relationship with TC. When has any other injured player gotten so much extra money thrown at him?

The money Snee gets really shouldn't be the concern. It's not stopping them from signing anyone and, for once, it's not going to lead to them having to restructure anyone in a way that will bite them later.
The problem is that their "big" OL signing's best position is RG and he's been forced off of it, put at LG, in order for the team to continue to pretend Snee, with his two bad hips and bad elbow, isn't forked. Even their back-up plan to Snee is pretty terrible (as Jerry is the trifecta of injured himself, an asshole, and poor on the field).

No problem BB. I think we all need to realize when a Giant player says he is a 100%, he never says it with the pads on...
Have substance behind your accusations
