One tool the Giants could use to pull off an upset of the unbeaten Patriots on Sunday is a former Patriot himself.
But it’s Shane Vereen’s talent — not any deep inside knowledge of his former team — that might end up being a decisive weapon for Big Blue in their much-anticipated matchup with New England at MetLife Stadium.
That’s because Vereen is arguably the best pass-catching running back in the NFL, which is an incredibly useful tool to have against a team that rushes the passer as well as Bill Belichick’s Patriots.
