Reuben Droughns to start at fullback for the Giants

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page by JessePex on Tuesday 28 August 2007 at 4:20 pm

With starting fullback Robert Douglas out for several weeks with a torn meniscus in his knee the Giants have decided to move Reuben Droughns to fullback.  Droughns was carried the football 17 times for 51 yards (3.0 ypc) and he has caught 3 passes for 25 yards (8.3 avg) in the pre-season so far.  The Giants wanted to get Droughns and Brandon Jacobs on the field at the same time and this will cause opposing teams problems because both of these guys are excellent power runners.  It was smart of the Giants to make this move as Droughns definately is one of the Giants best 11 offensive players and he deserves to be on the football field.
