8/03 NY Giants Training Camp Quotes from LB Michael Boley
Boley Talks Being Healthy and the Giants' Defense
Linebacker Michael Boley received "a lot of congratulations" after grabbing the most noteworthy interception of the New York Giants training camp, thus far. While Boley is looking to make similar plays when it matters during the 2010 NFL season, he's just happy to be participating in training camp.
"As you know, I missed everything last year," Boley explained. "I missed OTAs, training camp, I was on the PUP starting out so I didn't get to do any team activities. It was all working on my own and not getting a feel for the other ten guys on the field. After a couple of games, things started falling into place and then I was back out with the knee. It was up and down. I haven't been fully healthy in two years."
No worries regarding Boley's health this August. "I'm good. Good to go," said Boley. That's very good news for the Giants' defense.
Boley missed the start of the 2009 NFL season due to a hip injury. He then injured his knee in October, leaving many Giants fans wondering if the team made a mistake signing the linebacker to a five-year deal last February. He's looking to prove all of the doubters wrong this fall.
"Our biggest thing is getting everybody on the same learning curve to start out," Boley stated. "We have some young guys in our meeting room. We have some young guys on our defense. To get everybody on the same page mentally, everything will fall in place."
