Will Tye embraces underdog role in fight for Giants job

The Giants spent a lot of resources improving the tight end position this offseason.

They signed free agent Rhett Ellison to a four-year, $18-million deal and then selected Evan Engram in the first round of the draft.

For the guy who ended the 2016 season as the starting tight end, it was a bit jarring. And it certainly changes his role and his perspective during this offseason and heading into the preseason.

But Will Tye has a warning for those who have already crossed him off the Giants’ roster or buried him at the bottom of the depth chart.
