New York Giants

During the 25 games that Pat Shurmur was calling the plays for the Vikings offense in 2016 and 2017, Rudolph played some of the best football of his career. In this time period, the Minnesota tight end caught 109 passes for 1,050 yards, and 12 touchdowns.

Half of Rudolph’s touchdown catches in the last four seasons came when Shurmur was leading the Vikings’ offense.

Well, now Shurmur is the head coach of the New York Giants. And after the Giants foolishly decided to trade away Odell Beckham Jr. earlier this year, they can use all the offensive help they can get for 2019.

If New York were to add Rudolph in a trade, he would be brought in to complement their top tight end, Evan Engram. The veteran would be a good player for Engram to learn from and show him what it takes to keep a job in the NFL.

The Vikings and Giants made a trade last summer when New York sent over offensive lineman Brett Jones to Minnesota. Could the two teams make another deal this summer?
