New York Giants rookies are receiving a few extra days to familiarize themselves with training camp. So are their quarterbacks, including Eli Manning.
It doesn’t matter that Manning began his 15th training camp when he took the field Monday, surrounded by rookies and select veterans. This is a new regime. There is a new way of doing business for the Giants with Pat Shurmur as head coach and Dave Gettleman as general manager.
This is another new experience for Manning to add to his long resume. He had never been asked to report earlier than the rest of his teammates.
