When his position coach reminds him about his veteran status, Giants tight end Will Tye looks around to make sure Kevin M. Gilbride is talking to him.
“Coach says, ‘You’re a vet,’ and I’m like, ‘What?’ ’’ Tye told The Post last week after an Organized Team Activity practice. “In the room I am, but I don’t feel like it, that’s for sure.’’
When Larry Donnell is referred to as an elder statesman among the other tight ends, he flinches a bit.
“I got to go get Daniel Fells back, where is he?’’ Donnell said, referring to the veteran tight end who missed nearly all of last season battling a MRSA infection.
