Giants SS Kenny Phillips Assured He Won't Be Replaced

Strong Safety Kenny Phillips knew what people were thinking when the Giants signed free safety Antrel Rolle for $37 Million on the first day of free agency. He knew some took it as a sign the Giants were worried he'd never make it all the way back, but Phillips insists those fears are completely unfounded. In fact, he told the Daily News earlier today that his recovery from left knee surgery is on track to have him on the field for the start of training camp in July and once he's there, he plans to help Rolle make good on his vow that they'll form "the best safety tandem in the NFL." "The coaches have reassured me they didn't bring him in to replace me, they made that very clear," Phillips said. "After the performance we had last year in the secondary, they had to bring someone in. It would be foolish not to. It'll be a privilege playing next to him."

Thomas/Polamalu would be pretty sweet.

Don't count out the ever improving Byrd/Whitner though. They are good.
