Will Giants use fullback under Pat Shurmur? Shane Smith sees chance to 'run the rock downhill'

EAST RUTHERFORD -- As the 10 Giants offensive players around him shuffle on and off the practice field, Shane Smith stays put and waits for repetition.

The Giants are not often using a fullback during organized team activities, but when they do Smith is the first-teamer, the second-teamer, and the third-teamer for head coach/play-caller Pat Shurmur and offensive coordinator Mike Shula.

Triple the snaps at a position where snaps can be hard to come by.

"Shurmur is real creative with his offense: Different schemes and lining people up in different places," Smith said.
