There was a moment in time, not too long ago, when New York Giants linebacker Tae Crowder was labeled “Mr. Irrelevant.”
That will happen when you are the last player selected in the NFL draft, as Crowder was back in 2020. He’s quickly put those days are behind him and now he’s considered a veteran player, one who is seen a a leader on the Giants’ defense.
Crowder stepped in for the injured Blake Martinez last season after Martinez blew out his knee in late September and not only called the defensive signals for the rest of the season, but led the Giants in total tackles with 130.
