EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Deon Grant saw all the additions in Philadelphia and figured it was time to make up his own mind.

So Grant says he spurned opportunities elsewhere and re-signed with the New York Giants for another shot at the Eagles.

"I felt like I started something here last year and we didn't finish it," the veteran safety said. "And then with all the things going on in Philly right now, that is a team that I'd love to face. I'm a competitive guy. With them making all the additions that they made, I want to be on the other side of the ball to go against that."

When asked about the Eagles' hyped "Dream Team," Grant said the only team like that is at the Pro Bowl.
