METAIRIE, La. (AP) -Jeremy Shockey wants to make sure everyone knows the matchup between the undefeated Giants and the unbeaten Saints is not about him. Shockey acknowledged Wednesday that it will be different for him to play against the Giants, the team that drafted him in 2002. The tight end made four Pro Bowls during his six years in New York. But he was injured and unhappy during the Giants' Super Bowl championship two seasons ago. Shockey was traded to New Orleans in 2008 and will face his former team on Sunday. He says there are no vendettas and everyone has moved on. Shockey leads the Saints with 18 receptions this season. He has 162 yards receiving and two touchdowns.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press.
