Feature Brandon Jacobs: All Talk, No Play? by Staff Post June 10, 2011 $4.65 million dollars is current rate for the New York Giants 6’4”, 264 lb. running back, Brandon Jacobs. Rumors, allegedly started by RB Brandon Jacobs, have been circulating lately that the New York Giants would not be able to afford to keep the pricey player on their roster for the upcoming 2011 season. Can the Giants afford to lose Jacobs from their running game? General Manager, Jerry Reese, laughed off all speculations of Jacobs release on ESPN- NY1050. “I guess you have to consider the source when Brandon starts talking. You can’t read a lot into what Brandon is saying sometimes. We do expect Brandon to be a part of the football team this fall. He is under contract. Brandon does talk a lot and like I said, sometimes you got to tune some of the stuff out that he is talking about.” Replaced by Ahmad Bradshaw as first string running back last season, some will argue that Jacobs isn’t the runner he used to be; however Jacobs’ 2010 stats tell a different story. Last season, as second string, Jacobs had an astounding 5.6 yards per carry and 9 touchdowns. Why was he replaced? Maybe the issue isn’t that Jacobs is constantly being run to the outside when he’s clearly a downhill runner, or even that he is recently unsure of how to use his enormous size to his advantage during the run; maybe this issue is that he is spending too much time running his mouth rather than running routes. As GM Jerry Reese told EPSN-NY 1050, “He is just talking. Brandon likes to talk; sometimes he just talks to talk. Us here, in the Giants, in our building, we let some of that talk go off our backs like a duck and we don’t worry about it too much”. zithromax suspension minocycline malaria online proscar effets secondaires for sale frumil 5 mg Buy Without Prescription clonidine withdrawal hypertensive crisis drug Post Views: 1,172 The following two tabs change content below.BioLatest Posts Staff Post Latest posts by Staff Post (see all) In The Zone Announces Initial Podcast Lineup - November 13, 2020 The Essential Resources You Need to Start Your Own Gym in 2020 - February 6, 2020 Wilder vs Fury II – How the second fight will be different to the first? - February 5, 2020 Early turnovers, defensive struggles plague the Scarlet Knights - January 26, 2020 Related TopicsBrandon JacobsFootballJerry ReeseNew York Giants Click to comment You must be logged in to post a comment Login Leave a Reply Cancel replyYou must be logged in to post a comment.
