Giants longshot just turned heads at camp in all-out push for roster spot

New York Giants defensive tackle Elijah Chatman is fighting for his job, and he's not exactly doing it by the proverbial book.

The 6-foot, 278-pound interior lineman was already an underdog story when he went from undrafted free agent minicamp tryout to 53-man roster spot last year.

But with Darius Alexander now in the fold and the defensive tackle room as deep as it’s been in years, Chatman’s roster odds are getting slimmer by the day. And it looks like he knows it. Judging by what the team rolled out at practice on Tuesday, so do the G-Men.
