The coaching staff will have some tough decisions to make at tight end if LaCosse stays healthy and continues to perform like he did this spring. Evan Engram and Rhett Ellison are assured of roster spots, but there are no guarantees at tight end after that. LaCosse, Will Tye and Jerell Adams will compete for the final spot or two.

LaCosse suffered a knee injury early in training camp and he was placed on injured reserve. The 24-year-old rehabilitated at the Giants' facility and was able to attend meetings all season.

Is this finally LaCosse's year? With prototypical size and good hands, he has the ingredients to be an effective tight end .
