“You hear things,” new Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said in May, per Newsday’s Tom Rock, “but I’m sure glad that I truly believe in a clean slate. He’s been nothing but professional, he’s been out here competing, he’s one of the guys that has been nike cheap nfl jerseys here almost every single day and I haven’t seen anything that somebody might have thought I heard. He’s been great.”
While Apple’s maturity has been brought into question, his natural ability hasn’t. At 6’1″ and 201 pounds, the 22-year-old defensive back is fluid in coverage and has the size to handle bigger receivers.
“In terms of his stature, his skill set, yeah, nike nfl cheap jerseys he’s what you’re looking for,” Shurmur added.
Apple came into the league at 20 years old and seemed to be overwhelmed by the transition. Now heading into his third season with a more understanding staff, his play could help overhaul his reputation.
