because practice squad players that the Giants hype up prior to TRAINING CAMP won't make the final roster, let alone start in a regular season NFL game. I will eat a piece of shit if he starts in a PRESEASON game.
there's a reason he didn't make the team last year and a reason why no one has heard of anything prior to this year about him, but since the Giants don't seem to have anyone else to hype up at DT this year (William Joseph, in my opinion, is merely serviceable), it might as well be a practice squad player that might deserve a shot somewhere else.
