The run-in New York Giants defensive tackle Jonas Seawright had with offensive lineman Shaun O'Hara last Thursday – when the two exchanged punches – apparently isn't anything new. Players have remarked privately that Seawright has been extremely physical in practices this offseason since being promoted to the first team. And while coach Tom Coughlin admonished Seawright about his dust-up with O'Hara, coaches are said to be very happy with his development.

Seawright Hopes to Be Man on the Inside
Young DT hopes to earn starting nose tackle spot.

East Rutherford, NJ - With defensive tackle Kendrick Clancy’s free agency departure to Arizona, the Giants have an opening at nose tackle this season. Giants coaches have indicated that the position is wide open. And with a handful of unproven youngsters in the mix, it should pro ve to be an interesting battle among this group of relative unknowns.
“You never know how the cards are going to fall,” said defensive line coach Mike Waufle. “The best players play, so we’ll see. The good news is that we have some players that have some abilities and are going to be able to fit into those positions.”
Defensive Coordinator Tim Lewis was quick to remind reporters that Clancy was a wild card before last season.
“[Clancy] was unproven too,” Lewis said last week, when the assistant coaches were available to the media. “You guys had no idea who he was before last year.”
Enter Jonas Seawright, a 6-4, 340-pound defensive tackle who spent last season on the team’s practice squad. This year, with a defensive tackle position up for grabs, it’s up to Seawright to separate himself from the rest of the pack and earn a roster spot.
“May the best man win,” said Seawright, who joined the team in 2005 as an undrafted free agent from North Carolina.
