Eagles safety Walter Thurmond saw his one season in New York cut short by injury, but he feels his time with the Giants will provide some insight when his former team visits Lincoln Financial Field for Monday's NFC East grudge match between these long-time rivals.
Thurmond was lost last year in Week 2 with a torn pectoral. He then signed with the Eagles in the offseason, originally with designs of playing cornerback, but has made a smooth transition to safety.
Thurmond's intelligence with the way he has picked up the safety position and played it at a high level, has been one of the defensive bright spots for the 2-3 Eagles.
