The Clean Slate Policy decreed by the Giants' new regime has been helpful to many players who come into this season with more baggage than they can fit into an overhead bin. Guys who have had behavioral or attitude issues in the past, guys who have not lived up to on-field expectations, and guys who, for one reason or another, never clicked with the previous coaching staff and front office, have all enjoyed an opportunity to begin anew.
