| EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – For the most part, it had been a quiet training camp for veteran running back Shane Vereen. That was until Sunday served as a reminder of the unique skill set he adds to the New York Giants offense. The slow start to the summer was in part because of a lower body injury and the Giants' plan. They intended on bringing him along slowly all along following a season where he twice tore his triceps and missed most of the year. Now that he's healthy, this seems to be the portion of the summer where the Giants are ready to slowly integrate Vereen back into being a major piece of the offense -- like his was prior to the injury. When they took the field for the start of live drills at Sunday's practice, Vereen took the initial snap with the first-team offense. He caught a pass out of the backfield. It was a sign of things to come.... MORE |
He was (understandably) pissed after the concussion in the Dallas game. Finally comes back after the triceps injury and doesn't last more than a couple plays before gettin re injured
An obvious weapon. Look no further than the Niners comeback (Donnell catch game) when he killed SF on that last drive.
Yeah, great comparison.. a Super Bowl champion who caught nearly 60 passes for this team a couple years ago and is averaging about 4.5 YPC as a Giant is just like a late round DB who never sees an NFL field and gets cut.
Comparing one of the better 3rd down RBs in the league
+1
Let's not go that far, the guy has proven himself in his career at least. Yep, needs to stay healthy this year.
No it’s not. The offense is night and day when he’s healthy. He’s a big reason Eli had his best completion percentage.
