The Facts: Following up on a previous item. ... According to FOXSports' Mike Garafolo, Vereen to the Giants is a "done deal."

Diehards Line: With the Giants looking for a complimentary back to help out the passing offense, Vereen makes perfect sense. He's not a between-the-tackles guy, but the Giants already have that area covered with Rashad Jennings and Andre Williams. The Patriots' backfield, meanwhile, remains in flux with Vereen on the way out and Stevan Ridley's return uncertain.
