QB, TE Shortage Addressed On Practice Squad
The biggest criticism yesterday after the Giants announced their 53-man roster were; “Only two quarterbacks?” and “The Giants have only two TEs on the whole roster?”
Well, today the team took care of that by claiming back QB Rhett Bomar and TEs Bear Pascoe and Jake Ballard. These players, mind you, are not Giants’ property just players that get paid to practice with the team.
Any club can still claim them for their own 53-man roster. That seems unlikely at this or any other moment this year. The best part of this news is that Bomar got extensive playing time this summer and should something befall one of the team’s two QBs on the roster, the experience won’t be as foreign to him.
Pascoe and Ballard have been under the tutelage of Mike Pope for some time, so they understand the Giant way of doing things as well. Should Kevin Boss or Travis Beckum go down, Giant fans can rest assured there is relief in the wings.
