Shawn Andrews: Giants feel like 'home'
Daily News staff
You sorta knew this wasn't going to take long ... First, Shawn Andrews return to Twitter and then this ...
Andrews made his debut with the Giants, in for about 16 plays at left guard in a preseason game against Baltimore, and has declared that the Giants feel like home.
"It just felt good to run back out, even though I’m at my new home with the G-Men,” Andrews told the The Star-Ledger, of Newark. “I have to say it feels much more of a family atmosphere than what I’m used to in the past. Just starting with that in the locker room and then running out there, it’s an unbelievable feeling.”
Andrews was planning to work with the coaches today while the team had the day off to continue to learn the offense and said he thought he would catch on quickly.
“It just feels like home,” Andrews said of the Giants. “And I’m not just saying that to say the right thing. It really does. And I told the offensive line guys that. You can tell everybody is sincere and want to be here and work together. I can’t say it’s been like that my whole career.”

As far as other ex-Eagles, Redskins coach Mike Shanahan said it was possible that Donovan McNabb could miss the season opener against Dallas with a foot injury.
McNabb has not practiced since suffering the injury against Baltimore in the second preseason game.
Asked if McNabb's status for the opener was in jeopardy, Shanahan said, "I really don’t know for sure. That is why it is day-by-day and we just need to see how it goes. Hopefully it won’t be.”
It seems unlikely that McNabb would play in the fourth preseason game, Thursday against Arizona, although Shanahan was not giving that away either.
“Donovan, I think, is a little bit too sore right now. I am not really sure about playing him, but I should find out more tomorrow."

Looking ahead to the Packers, coach Mike McCarthy said veteran Daryn Colledge will start over rookie Bryan Bulaga at left guard against the Eagles on Sept. 12, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.
Bulaga has missed practice and a presason game with a hip flexor injury. He could return as soon as tomorrow.
In another interesting note, starting QB Aaron Rodgers ran the scout-team offense to prepare the No. 1 defense for what it might see against the Eagles. Although a lot of the preparation was geared to the preseason finale against KC, it is unlikely the starters will see much, if any, time.

When Shawn Andrews refers to everybody is he's referring to ral people or voices in his head?— pgcd3- Shawn Andrews is an a**.... "running out there, it’s an unbelievable feeling.”.....you had every opportunity to do that with the Eagles (and your brother) but no, you had to steal their money! Sorry to say but I hope he blows out his ACL in the first game....that's assumming he doesn't quit on the G-men before then.— jimyd0315
More of a family than playing with your brother? What a jerk. I wish guys like this would be kicked out of the league and forced to do a TV reality show for free that documents their downward spiral.- How much more of a 'family atmosphere' do you need than the possibility of playing next to your brother. Reid really dropped the ball with the Andrews sisters.— blood_green
- Geez, is the current crop of Eagles that boring that we continue to have Shawn Andrews updates, almost daily?
Stop writing about Shawn Andrews. He's gone and Philadelphia is over it and him.

Well, it's kind of hard to have that 'home' feeling in the locker room when you're not there. Let's see if he's still feeling the 'home' love at the midway point in the season when he more than likely will be sitting at home instead of the locker room.- what a loser - good riddance to bad rubbish. how long until he leaves THEM in a lurch. I'm sure philly.com will "review" this comment, too, due to my commonsense approach to their political cheerleading.— davey
