Report: Giants trade for Sage Rosenfels

Fri 3rd, September 2010

Minneapolis, MN (Sports Network) - The New York Giants have apparently found a backup quarterback after reportedly acquiring Sage Rosenfels from the Minnesota Vikings.

The Minneapolis Star Tribune cited sources as confirming the move, and the NFL Network is reporting a future conditional draft pick is headed back to the Vikings as compensation.

New York has been in the market for a qualified backup to Eli Manning since Jim Sorgi was put on injured reserve earlier this week with a shoulder injury. Sorgi was signed in March after six seasons backing up Manning's brother Peyton in Indianapolis. That left second-year pro Rhett Bomar the most experienced QB behind Manning.

In Rosenfels, the Giants get a nine-year veteran with 32 games of experience and 12 NFL starts to his credit. The 32-year-old's most prolific year came in 2007 while filling in for an injured Matt Schaub in Houston. Rosenfels appeared in nine games and started five, completing 64.2 percent of his passes for 1,684 yards and 15 touchdowns, with 12 interceptions.

In 2008, Rosenfels again filled in for an injured Schaub and saw time in six games with five starts. He ended up connecting at a 66.7-percent clip for 1,431 yards and six TDs to go with 10 picks.

The Iowa State product served as the third-string quarterback in Minnesota last year behind Brett Favre and Tarvaris Jackson.
