    New York Giants Remake Offense in the Summer of '61

    New York Giants Remake Offense in the Summer of '61

    It’s impossible today to reconstruct an offense in a few weeks of training camp, but END ZONE INSIGHT takes its listeners on a magical ride in the summer of 1961 when the New York Giants created a record-setting aerial attack by making three astute trades that netted a top tight end, a super-fast wide receiver, and Hall of Fame passer. And they did it in virtual anonymity in a small west coast town while Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris of the Yankees were stealing the headlines chasing Babe Ruth’s single season home run record.
