who played a position of obvious need, wouldn't you do just about anything to get on the field?
Even if it meant hobbling around? Short of a broken bone or a torn ACL, I can't imagine not getting on the field when there's such a glaring need at TE.

It is almost certainly not up to the player. If the medical staff says you can't go...you can't go.
Hollidays chances are to make the team since he can't seem to get on the field.
Right now? Almost 0%
But they signed him to be the PR/KR and it only takes 1 game for him to shine there. It's not like the other returners are setting the world on fire in his absence...
Does anyone know if this kid will actually play in a preseason game ? I have great fear about his ability to gel with Eli this year given complete training camp wash out.

I am not 100% up to date on his injury etc.
He should be back for next weeks game.
On the bright side, Beckham isn't a complete stranger to Eli. He's been catching passes from him every Spring/Summer going back to his high-school days.

What is it that makes you think he has a choice in the matter?
Even though Patterson did fairly well last year I don't think they would miss him much. Hosley? He's probably played himself off the roster anyway. Grimble? He was probably a long shot anyway. Holliday? With the emergence of Harris and Washington how can they justify giving a guy a roster spot that only returns kicks?
Does not need to show what he can do all pre season, if he plays next week, and plays well, then he is a lock. He has experience, and we need experience badly at DT. We have enough inexperience and youth, we need Patterson to make this team, and badly. If you think that is not important, then I don't know if you understand much at all. If he can not get on the field, is out of shape, and has problems, then that is another story, but I do not think that is the case at all.
I wanted the Giants to draft Xavier but it will be hard now

I always thought he was headed to the PS. Now, it's a certainty. I guess a great camp could have gotten him on the roster but that didn't happen and it's probably too late now no matter what.
Beckham, will play next game and be ready for the opener.
Holliday, needs to get on the field,still think they want him to be the returner.(punts and/or kicks)
Hosley, very much in danger of being cut.
Hilis, on the bubble,think they are keeping Cox,may have to be healthy to keep job over Gaskins.
Beason, not worried, he will be back.
Fells, think he has a good chance of making roster ,but needs to be healthy.
Grimble, straight to practice squad,
Patterson, being hurt does not help him,with Bromley looking like a player,could be odd man out.
