Tight End Trouble

    Evan Engram has been the Giants starting tight end since being drafted in the 1st round of the 2017 draft. But four and a half years later in October of 2021, I think I, and most other Giants fans, have seen enough. After rewatching some of the games from the last few seasons, it is clear to see some real issues that Engram has made for the Giants. I counted 7 times that a throw from Daniel Jones bounced off of Engram's hands and into those of an opposing defender for a pick. 7 TIMES!! Sure, perhaps 1 or 2 of them you can put on Jones, but being involved in that same situation so many times goes to show that this is not a coincidence. Engram's hands are very unreliable and he cannot be trusted with the football. Most Giants fans remember the heartbreaking loss the Giants took to the Eagles in October of the 2020 season. This game is remembered for being the game where Daniel Jones famously lost his footing and fell after a wide-open 80 yard run to the endzone. But as you may recall the Giants had that game won with about 2 minutes left. On third and nine, Daniel Jones threw Engram open giving him an easy ball to secure the victory, yet he was unable to make a catch that I'm quite sure my 6-year-old cousin would have made. 

    Before this Engram had dropped some passes but it wasn't part of his M O. Now each time Engram is healthy and on the field (which seems to be a rare occurrence), we can mark him down for at least one drop and a turnover. A lot of Giants fanatics, like myself, are sick of watching this man ruin games week in and week out. Week 3 of this year I went to the game against Atlanta, each time Engram stepped on the field he was booed followed by cheers when he was subbed out. This should show the higher-ups how the Big Blue Faithful feels. The G-Men did bring in some help this offseason and signed a big red zone target in Kyle Rudolph to help in the tight end room. In addition to that their third-string tight end, Kaden Smith, is underrated in my eyes and could be a sufficient starting tight end and an excellent backup to Rudolph. With that being said I think Engram needs to be shipped out. and He simply doesn't work with the Giants. Perhaps if traded to another team he could fix what's going on between the ears and start new with a clean slate. So Mr. Mara, Mr. Gettleman, or Mr. Judge if you reading this: GET HIM OUT please, and thank you.
