From one Vegan to another...Congrats Chris. Now I have to root for a fricken NY team LOL Give 'em hell.
PS Guess we won't be watching anymore games at your crib this year. :SIB
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (Oct. 30, 2006) -- Veteran linebacker Chris Claiborne was signed by the New York Giants.
The Giants (5-2) did not announce a roster move to make room for Claiborne, who was signed a day after starting weakside linebacker Brandon Short injured a quadriceps in a win over Tampa Bay.
New York lost strongside linebacker LaVar Arrington to a season-ending Achilles' tendon injury the previous game against Dallas.
Claiborne has spent eight seasons in the NFL with Detroit, Minnesota and St. Louis. He has played in 108 games with 89 starts, 399 tackles, 13 sacks and eight interceptions. He started seven of 14 games with the Rams last season and had 49 tackles and a half-sack before going on injured reserve with a patella tendon knee problem.
Claiborne was the ninth draft choice overall by the Lions in 1999. He played four seasons in Detroit, appearing in 63 games with 58 starts. He signed with the Minnesota Vikings as an unrestricted free agent in 2003 and started all 24 games over the next two seasons.
