Manningham's career has veered off course since leaving the Giants as a free agent following the 2011 season. The receiver signed with the San Francisco 49ers and ended each of the last two seasons on injured reserve with knee problems stemming from a torn ACL in 2012.

Manningham, 27, made one of the most important catches in Giants history, a 38-yard toe-tapping sideline grab that helped set up the go-ahead score in the team's Super Bowl XLVI win over the New England Patriots.

The Giants are in need of a wide receiver after Hakeem Nickssigned with the Indianapolis Colts on Friday. The question is whether Manningham is still the same guy the Giants remember.
