EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The New York Giants are heading back to the University at Albany for training camp for at least another year.
The Giants and the university also announced on Tuesday that the new deal includes a two-year option to train in New York’s capital through 2012.
There has been little doubt that the Giants would return to Albany this year, but the two sides wanted to wait until an agreement was signed before announcing it. Camp will open on Aug. 1.
The Giants have trained at the university, about 150 miles north of the Meadowlands, since 1996. This will be their 15th season in Albany, their longest period at one site in the team’s training camp history.
