I wrote about Ron Dayne's second chance a few days ago. Here's a similar story worth reading because it has new information. For example, Dayne heads into training camp at 235 pounds, which is good news for Giants fans who want to see him hitting holes harder and quicker.
Still, Coughlin cautions that Dayne will need a strong training camp. Barber expresses confidence in Dayne, but I get the feeling he'll say anything to get fewer carries. I can't really remember any other running backs saying they want fewer carries, but I guess he's concerned about his durability. Fewer carries would mean a longer football career. Interestingly, Dayne is looking forward to his next contract...
