Deon Grant, currently a free agent, wants to believe that his time in the NFL -- and specifically his time with the New York Giants -- is not finished yet.
The New York Daily News reported over the weekend that the 33-year-old Grant, an 11-year veteran who spent the last two seasons with the Giants, "expects to re-sign with the Giants sometime during training camp."
My question for you is, do you want that to happen?
Grant had 62 tackles, a sack, an interception and six passes defensed last season. His presence allowed defensive coordinator Perry Fewell to often utilize the three-safety alignment he likes.
There is no obvious replacement for Grant on the Giants' roster, as several young, unproven players will compete in training camp for the spot that belonged to Grant the past two years.
Should the Giants re-sign the veteran and try to squeeze one more year from him, or should they just go with whichever young safety earns the job have an opportunity? Vote in the poll
