The names of the legends who built the tradition of New York Giants defense are there for these current players to see overhead on the locker room wall.
The names serve as a reminder of what has long been the franchise’s identity, a virtual siren call to all those who have followed and have failed more often than not to uphold the proud tradition.
“There’s a standard you play with, there’s a standard that’s bestowed upon you by being a Giant, right?” Kayvon Thibodeaux told The Post. “It’s a heavy crown to wear. But I know we’re all grateful to wear it.”
It is time for them, in Denver on Sunday, to wear it the way it was meant to be worn.
