    Default Giants Defensive End Contract Pulled After Firework Incident:

    Giants Defensive End Contract Pulled After Firework Incident:


    http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...son-pierrepaul


    The New York Giants are withdrawing their $60 million long-term contract offer to Jason Pierre-Paul following the star pass rusher's fireworks incident over the weekend, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Monday, per three sources informed of the situation.


    JPP suffered a hand injury Saturday night while attempting to light fireworks. He required hospitalization, and will remain in a Miami-area hospital for the next few days. Rapoport reported JPP's hand will be intact, and as of Sunday night, doctors were still examining for nerve damage and other issues related to the incident.

    Kinda ill though how the news came out. Adam Schefter could have said "my sources have stated....", but to post that pic on Twitter... I don't know if legal or not, but it seems unethical to me.

    Jason Pierre-Paul has finger amputated,


    http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/13...nger-amputated


    New York Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul had his right index finger amputated Wednesday, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.


    Medical records show the procedure took place Wednesday afternoon.


    Pierre-Paul's amputated finger one of many issues for him, Giants


    One important thing to note here is that this incident did not affect Jason Pierre-Paul's chances to get a long-term contract done this offseason. That chance never really existed, Dan Graziano writes.


    One source characterized the timeline for Pierre-Paul's return as being "sooner than people think" and said he still is expected to play this season.

    Not happening.

    I mean, yeah, I'm never getting a $60M contract to play football, but I'm also never going to get eaten by sharks and I'm not having my hand blown up by fireworks.

    Take showers (because, you know, a shark could always be in the tub) and let someone else light the fireworks.

    Sadly, he wasn't the only football player to suffer an injury like that this 4th of July.

    C.J. Wilson lost two fingers in fireworks accident

    A new report says the hand injury suffered by Buccaneers cornerback C.J. Wilson in a Fourth of July fireworks accident was very serious.

    The Lincoln Times-News in Wilson’s hometown of Lincolnton, North Carolina reports that Wilson lost two fingers in the accident. The report cites sources close to the family and says the incident occurred at home in Lincolnton, with family and close friends present.

    Such an injury would be career-threatening for Wilson, a 25-year-old who has been in the NFL for two years. Wilson entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent out of North Carolina State, played in 2013 for the Bears and then signed last year with the Bucs.

    The Buccaneers have acknowledged they’re aware of the injury but have not released any details about Wilson’s condition. Wilson’s agent has likewise confirmed that he’s injured but declined to release any medical information.
