Tuck to re-sign with Giants and retire in Blue

Loved the guy.

He deserves a million-dollar signing bonus!

Well deserved, thanks JT!

Easy BBI. Take your fingers off the keyboard and read. I was just getting another misnomer in there before the beat writers messed with Justin's name again.

This is well deserved and great news.

All time great Giant, and one of my favorite players to ever wear the uniform.

and he resides in my town! Ring of Honor slam dunk.

As it should be.. Welcome home big man

!!!!

as a rotational DE and mentor to the young guys on defense.

Seriously. We could use him.

Maybe he can mentor fellow Fighting Irishman UDFA DE Romeo Okwara, now THAT would be awesome!

He is one of my all-time favorite Giants and the argument can be made that he should have been a two time Superbowl MVP.

Definite throwback

Tuck jersey years back

I don't really understand the whole one day contract thing but I know it means something to the players so I am all for it.

.

Wonderful career highlighted by 2 dominant performances in the 2 SBs. What a gamer!

News.

when he wanted to come back to the Giants for just a reasonable offer. Not a critical mistake, but still Jerry should have kept him. After all, Reese had no one to replace him.

He would have been the defensive MVP last year if he had just put up the numbers of his last year as a Giant:

11 sacks, 7 tackles for a loss, a pick and 2 forced fumbles.

More importantly, the young linemen like Moore benefit from having an experienced, winning vet to teach them.

Great leader, great man and had some amazing seasons in Blue. Get him into the Ring of Honor sooner rather than later.

in blue!!! A truly great Giant and role model. One of the many things I loved about him was/is his disdain for Dallas.

and equally great human being.
Welcome back JT !!!

Congratulations Mr. Tuck !

Time flies. Tuck was and is always a giant.

here's hoping he sticks around and teaches Romeo Okwara how to play.

Nice.

Wish he never left in the first place.

Me too, also like Eli , the bigger the game the better he played. Only player with multiple sacks in multiple Super Bowls. Also, provided the pressure on the Brady safety grounding in 46.

Simply a great Giant.

91

You gonna have a ring after this!!!

do they actually get paid for these? If the vet minimum is 1 mil per year, he'd be due $2,739 bucks for this contract for a day, haha

Class, dignity, humility, talent, leadership and a great teammate. Outside of Eli, my favorite Giant of the recent SB runs.

You put it perfectly. I will always respect and appreciate #91.

players elevate their play when it matters the most and JT showed that in SB 42 and 46. hopefully he is also inducted into the ring of honor.

Great Job Giants.. he Deserves a good send off

when he and Chris Snee were young, and hadn't started winning rings, they started following the Yankees together.

The incredible performance of the front office during the 2005 draft immediately took the sting out of having lost the picks we did in the Eli deal.

Webster, Tuck, and Jacobs is a hell of a haul even if you have all of your picks.

Was fun to watch.

the consistent numbers I thought he would. That being said, he showed up big time in our two SB runs in 07/11. No question one of the best SB performers from a defensive POV ever in SB history.

A great giant who was hurt by injuries or might have been a HOF.

Welcome back, JT!

LOL Well played.

So completely appropriate.

He played his best ball on the biggest stage when it mattered most. That's a champion.

all time. He was a rare role model on and off the field.

It's been a great pleasure watching you give your heart and soul to this team. Best wishes and thank you!

Somebody else was doing the drafting of players then,
when a real 3rd pick was actually helpful, LOL.
I am half-joking.

.

91 was the first jersey he wanted.

glad he is retiring as a Giant, would not call Tuck an all time great Giant. I think some get carried away,
when a player decides to retire as a Giant.
I didn't mind when they let him walk, hadn't played very well
for a couple years. I appreciate him helping this team to
win a couple of SB's.

JT. Thanks for your blood, seat, and tears. A great athlete and competitor.

not seat.

deserved.

Awesome human being

see the respect guys like Snee, Osi, Tuck and Coughlin have received from this organization and fan base the last few years.

The opportunity is there for them to have the same.

an all-time great for the Giants. There is only one goal in an NFL season and to achieve that goal twice in a career while preforming as one of the very best players on the field for either team, makes you a great.

Great Giant

Never saw that. Thanks for posting.

Best of luck. A true Giant!

!

One of the best of our recent era. Played the 2 best games of his life in his 2 Super Bowls.

Hopefully he has invested well with his NFL and Subways money

My favorite Giant of this era outside of Eli.

Once a Giants, always a Giant.

All the best to you, Justin. You clothed yourself with honor, dedication and distinction when you were here. Thank you.

Having many many Giants I considered favorites since the 70's...Tuck is at the top of the list. Hell I even bought his jersey.

we missed his leadership

one of my absolute favorites ever. "35 mil goes a long way for an Alabama boy"... never was a greedy guy. Loved his soft spoken quiet demeanor in an age full of "me first" athletes. Great captain. Historic superbowl performances. Always stayed late to sign autographs at Met Life practices in the summer. I highly disagree with anyone who doesn't feel he is an all time giant great. If his career wasn't cut short by injuries he was on a path to superstardom. 10 sacks in 2007 as a rotational D lineman...Plus his and Jacobs hatred of the cowboys will always be remembered fondly.

he was a very young Justin Tuck chasing down Ladanian Tomlinson from behind. He was a great player, and really was a class act off the field. Definite shoo in for the ring of honor.
