Kevin Gilbride recently told Jeremy Shockey that he wants the tight end back as a featured part of the Giants offense, according to a report in The New York Daily News. However, the team's offensive coordinator also admitted that he doesn't know if that can, or will, happen. "It's so nebulous right now, you just have no idea," Gilbride said. "Right now he's on our team. We're planning on him being there. He'll be one of the guys that we'll look to feature and one of the guys that we'll look to depend on. Hopefully he'll be here in good spirits and ready to do the things that we know he's capable of doing. But who knows? It's certainly beyond my hands." Gilbride didn't release the details, but he did admit that he spoke with Shockey and said: "I hope he comes back, and if he does come back I'm looking forward to working with him, and I think his coaches and teammates all feel like I do, that we'll be a better football team because he's here. I just wanted to make sure he understood that."
