Shockey and Reese get into shouting match

According to espn.com:

 

The Giants' turbulent off-season got another jolt this week when disgruntled tight end Jeremy Shockey and general manager Jerry Reese got into a shouting match at the team's minicamp, the Bergan (N.J.) Record reported.

 

 

Although the genesis of the diagreement is unknown, Shockey said last week he was unhappy the Giants made him sit in co-owner Steve Tisch's luxury box instead of letting him stay on the field during Super Bowl XLII. He also said Giants spread rumors he wanted a trade.

Giants coach Tom Coughlin said Shockey's mental state hasn't gotten much better during the three-day minicamp, which finished Friday at Giants Stadium .

"There is an issue, but it is not something that would prevent him from working," Coughlin told the Record.

Drew Rosenhaus, Shockey's agent, was at Giants Stadium on Friday. He was asked if Shockey wants to remain on the Giants' roster.

"I don't specifically have a way to address that at this time because Jeremy's been very adamant about avoiding any public discussion about a situation," Rosenhaus said, according to the Record.

"The best thing I can say about Jeremy's situation is that we are talking to the team about some of the issues that exist and we hope to get that resolved."
