Good morning, New York Giants' fans! Here are your Thursday morning links, one day after a news-filled first day of OTAs for the Giants.
It appears that wide receiver Ramses Barden could be returning to the team. Barden is reportedly expected to take a physical this morning at the Timex Performance Center.
Valentine's View: The return of Ramses might be considered surprising, but I have been wondering about the possibility for a while The Giants carried six receivers a season ago, and without Barden there are only five obvious candidates to make the 53-man roster. If he gets a second chance with the Giants after four mostly disappointing seasons it will be interesting to see if he can make something of it.
No news yet this morning on the knee injury suffered Wednesday by fullback Henry Hynoski. As WFAN's Paul Dottino tweeted this morning, that might not be a good sign for Hynoski and the Giants. We should know more later today.
