I am standing in the middle of the Giants practice field following another sweltering practice looking up, looking way up, at 6-foot-6, 259-pound Theo Johnson.
He is the rookie tight end out of Penn State who happens to be bigger than Mark Bavaro and bigger than Jeremy Shockey, and Daniel Jones has to be dreaming that Johnson can be as big for him as Bavaro was for Phil Simms and Shockey was for Eli Manning for a while.
I ask Theo Johnson if he is familiar with the two Giants tight ends of yesteryear, and start with Bavaro.
