Does Corey Washington make the team?
That’s one of the GIANT questions out there for the New York Giants organization and legion of fans right now: Will the fourth quarter preseason hero make the 53-Man roster?
Corey Washington Legend…
The story that you’re told is that Corey Washington was born in South Carolina… but that nonsense couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, it’s genuine cowgirl-bs — and a heaping pile at that.
You see Giants Nation, the real story is that little baby Corey Washington was found in Central Park, New York sometime in 1991 under a pile of debris left-over from the Giants 1990 Super Bowl win. Corey Washington was alone, cold and had nothing but old school GIANT greatness to keep him warm.It was only then that a Carl Banks jersey (Happy Birthday, Carl) floated mysteriously through the air and almost landed on the little version of the preseason hero.
Alas, at the last moment, a genuine Stephen Baker “The Touchdown Maker” jersey landed on Corey Washington. The baby let out a soft sigh of relief as he was simultaneously scooped up into the arms of a jogging Bill Parcells. To which Bill said:
"“Babies don’t belong in the park, they belong in the end zone.”"
Tiny @HeDoubleTrouble nodded his head, gave TUNA a double thumbs up and the rest is truthful-fictitious NFL history…
Nowadays, Corey Washington is a New York Giant that only scores touchdowns. It’s a gift and a fourth quarter preseason curse, on Twitter at @gmenhq, we posed this question concerning Corey Washington:
Should Corey Washington (@HeDoubleTrouble ) make this roster, Giants Nation?

Or did he not drop enough passes w/the 1st Team to qualify?
Giants Nation: Initial Response:
@gmenhq I think so IDK why the hesitation in using him but whenever he was in he was playing lights out #nyg #gmen

Indeed, that’s all it is at this point, a waiting game.
