NFL-Giants: NY Giants football news

Coughlin & Davenport

Here's a Post article about Coughlin visiting the traning camp facilities at the University of Albany. There's some indication that this training camp will be tough:

"I'm anticipating us having the pads on twice a day, I would imagine," said linebacker Barrett Green, a free-agent pickup from the Lions. "I'm gonna prepare myself for the worst circumstances possible."

In the same article we get news of a new tight end:

The Giants yesterday signed tight end Joe Dean Davenport, who spent the past three seasons with the Colts. The 6-6, 268- pound Davenport has 11 career catches for 93 yards.

Obviously the Giants needed another tight end in training camp (Shockey, Rivers, and Dinkins are injured), but you have to wonder if Davenport will stick around as a blocking tight end.
