As New York Giants cornerback Eli Apple attempts to rebound from a devastating 2017 season, his teammates and fans have surrounded the athlete with good thoughts and confidence.
As a third-year player, Apple has not lived up to the expectations set forth by a top 10 pick, and his weaknesses have been on full display ever since his drafting in 2016. One scout raved about Apple’s on field abilities and his coverage skills, but another pointed out a significant flaw in his game – his maturity.
The New York Giants have a new crop of rookies and a ton of talent on both sides of the ball.
