Senior safety finishes his career with 180 tackles and 25 pass breakups
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.; Nov. 10, 2015 – Senior safety Jordan Lucas (New Rochelle, N.Y.) will miss the remainder of the season due to an injury.
The first-place Giants must play the remainder of their season without one of the linchpins on their defensive line.
Tackle Johnathan Hankins, a productive and complete player, tore a pectoral muscle in the Giants’ victory yesterday at Tampa Bay and must undergo surgery.
The Giants announced two days ago they reached a contract agreement with Jason Pierre-Paul for a reported $8.7 million deal that was heavy on incentives. The contract will enable the two-time Pro Bowl defensive end to report to the team and begin working toward a return to the playing field.
Yesterday JPP talked to reporters about coming back and his situation after the fireworks accident on July 4th that resulted in him losing his index finger and sustaining damage to his entire hand.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Rashad Jennings leads the Giants with 71 rushing attempts, 22 more than runner-up Andre Williams. But the team’s rushing attack is more than a one or even two-man endeavor, as we saw in the Giants’ 27-20 victory over Dallas last week.
If you want to check on the whereabouts a recently released Eagles player you were following, you may want to take a look at the New York Football Giants roster first.
Over the past few years, it seems a number of Birds booted from the nest have found a home at the other end of the Jersey Turnpike with arguably the Eagles biggest rival, Big Blue.

The Giants did not turn the ball over during their win over the Dallas Cowboys. The defense came up with three Matt Cassel interceptions on the three consecutive drives in the second half.
With the win and the Eagles loss to Carolina, Big Blue sits in sole possession of first place in the NFC East.
The Eagles defense picked off Cam Newton three times and came up with just six points. The loss put the Eagles at 3-4 on the season. Sam Bradford was sacked five times and receivers dropped the ball numerous times in the 27-16 loss.
If the Eagles win in Carolina they could spark a run like 2013, Chip Kelly’s first year. Lose and they have to think about a 3-4 record for two weeks and a road date against the Dallas Cowboys.
