New York Giants Mailbag: A Quick One

We have a short mailbag this week.

If you'd like to submit a question for the mailbag, please send it to nygiantsmaven@gmail.com. We reserve the right to edit letters for clarity and conciseness. While we try to answer all questions received, we reserve to consolidate if several people ask the same question. 

Thanks for the question Zanevan and for the kind words. I'm not quite ready to predict who will lead the Giants in receiving yards just yet because I'd like to see how they're deployed. That said, if Capbell stays healthy, I don't see why he can't contribute a large chunk of the production on offense this season. I'm looking forward to seeing how offensive coordinator Mike Kafka deploys him.

(from Ed S.) Do teams in states with no state income taxes have a competitive salary advantage over other teams?

What's up, Ed? Apologies for missing your question for the other mailbag. I think there are advantages for a player to go to a state with no income tax. If a player is playing half of his games in a state with no income tax, that's more money in his pocket at the end of the year. That said, I believe players have to pay taxes to the states hosting games with income tax laws.
