Eli Apple drama is helping Giants make fans forget the organization is a disaster
So the Giants seemingly have successfully shifted the conversation, through some timely leaks and friendly faces, to the bad attitude of second-year defensive back Eli Apple and away from their 2-11 season that got Eli Manning benched and GM Jerry Reese and head coach Ben McAdoo fired.
And so it's the disobedience of Apple, a 22-year-old corner, being put in fans' faces to distract them from the butt-kicking that is coming on Sunday from the visiting Philadelphia Eagles, even without injured QB Carson Wentz.
And yet, there is truth to Apple's immaturity and problems.
This was confirmed by teammate Landon Collins' candid interview scrum Wednesday in East Rutherford.
