Overview: After only his second year with the New York Giants, T. J. Brookman has become the best tight end in professional football. His stats are nothing short of amazing - and what’s even more amazing is that he was only a sixth-round pick in the first place. With one season remaining on his rookie contract, his agent, Barry Sturtz, wants to renegotiate and get a more lucrative deal - a common practice among players who have exceeded expectations.
But the Giants refuse. They want Brookman to play through his last year, then they’ll talk about a new contract. Sturtz, however, doesn’t trust them. He wants the deal now—and if he doesn’t get it, he’s going to instruct T.J. to boycott the team’s upcoming training camp. Head coach Alan Gray doesn’t flinch at the threat—if T.J. doesn’t show, he says, they’ll simply bench him. Sturtz thinks it’s a bluff - the Giants have had problems with offensive production, and T.J. is their only bright spot. But Gray insists he’s serious.
No one is more stunned by this development than offensive coordinator Dale Greenwood. Having struggled in polite subordination under Gray’s megalomaniacal leadership, the talented Greenwood is concerned that he will now lose his most productive receiver. He suspects Gray’s true motivation is that he simply doesn’t want to spend the money on a tight end - Gray is a defensive-minded coach with little interest in the offensive side of the ball.
What Gray really wants is for everything to stay just the way it is. And to create the necessary leverage, he orders Greenwood to bring in three “camp bodies” - decoys, essentially - to compete for T.J.’s job. Greenwood has no choice but to comply, and he assembles a trio of unsigned players from the bottomless pool of league wannabes.
