New York Giants Acquire QB Sage Rosenfels from the Minnesota Vikings

According to Alex Marvez of Fox Sports, the New York Giants have traded for Vikings third-string QB Sage Rosenfels. Marvez’ report indicated that terms are not yet available, but one has to wonder if there are a bubble player or two headed to Minnesota.

{Update: Nope. NFL.com ticker reporting that the compensation is a conditional draft pick. Looks like the Giants got a guy with some decent experience on the ultra cheap. It also means the bursting of the bubble for one more bottom of the roster guy.}

The trade for Rosenfels was necessitated by the injury to Jim Sorgi. Rosenfels most likely becomes Eli Manning‘s backup, pushing Rhett Bomar to third-string.

The Giants also acquired RB Darius Reynauld in this deal.

      haha all credit to alex marvez, who got this from either Rosenfels agent or from someone in Minnesota. If this had come from NY, the team would have given it right to Vacchiano or Garafolo…

    Reynaud was a great weapon for pat white at WVU. Im pretty sure he scored two tds when they beat up on oklahoma in 2008 (07?). Wonder if there gonna give him a shot to return kicks he did take two back his rookie year with the vikes

  7. Matthew Kiernankujo says:

    Apparently Reynaud is a kick return guy.

    What a great day to be a Jewish Giant fan!

    Not since the days of Jerry Golsteyn have the Giants had a QB who we Jewish fans might claim as one of our own. But now, just days before the High Holidays, Mr. Reese goes out and gets us a Rosenfels.

    Such a mitzvah!
