SB Nation's Acme Packing Company helps us out.
Earlier this week, wide receiver Myles White was elevated from the practice squad by the New York Giants as wide receiver insurance with Victor Cruz still shelved by a stubborn calf injury.
Why did the Giants turn to the 24-year-old former member of the Green Bay Packers rather than sign a name player like Hakeem Nicks or Wes Welker? We turned to Evan "Tex Western of SB Nation's Packers blog, Acme Packing Company for more information about White. Here is what Western sent us via e-mail:
White was one of the Packers' better receivers in training camp, and very much earned his spot on the 53 out of camp.
