Walter Thurmond, who played in just two games for the New York Giants last season before landing on injured reserve with a pectoral injury, is now starting -- and starring -- at safety for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Considering what the Giants have gone through at the safety position this season, there are probably two adjectives that describe that scenario. Ironic. And annoying.
You know the deal with the Giants at safety. They let Antrel Rolle, Stevie Brown and Quintin Demps go, then started from scratch. They drafted Landon Collins and Mykkele Thompson. They they watched as Nat Berhe, Thompson and Bennett Jackson all suffered season-ending injuries.
