Great story. Thanks for posting.
great story  
CMicks3110 : 4/28/2024 6:24 pm : link
really hope he shines in big blue. Allar was an awful QB and have to imagine that hurt his film.
I think he has a chance to be Kevin Boss 2.0

That's who I see as well. Maybe a little more sudden than Boss, but he has that same long speed, for sure.
Great video of what hard work gets you!

I've been a Giant fan since Charlie Conerly, Big Red Alex Webster etc..this kid will be my favorite Giant in my waining years! Hope Theo and Bellinger have a year!
Other than nabers

There’s a case that he’s the most important draft pick this year. Will be fun to root for, thanks for posting.
Wow, I did not expect that  
JoeSchoens11 : 4/28/2024 7:17 pm : link
So happy for Theo and fam. Hope he earns a second contract here!
What a mom

That is a great and touching story.

I love the fact that his mother took it upon herself and worked hard to get a law degree.
I’m not crying

You’re crying
That was awesome

No other words...
I was hoping we drafted him

Welcome to NY Theo
I did some research  
Matt in SGS : 4/28/2024 9:43 pm : link
and his dad played for the Giants in 1980 as a returner. He was signed after the Steelers let him go and he was the fastest man on the roster. Here is the highlights I posted to the BigBlueVCR twitter account.

His dad wore #84 with the Giants. Johnson wore #84 at Penn State. I wonder if he's going to go full circle and wear that with the Giants. Show that he's the better person/man, let alone player, to wear that number in the pros. Like everyone else on here, I'm rooting for him.

Stranger than fiction
Heart warming story

I will be rooting for Johnson’s success on Giants
awesome video  
Eric on Li : 4/28/2024 11:11 pm : link
seems like they drafted a bunch of really serious people off the field.

Either you have the most extensive and cataloged video archive of NY Giants football that exists on planet earth, or you have some serious Google skills.

Compelling story. Strong, tough, compassionate lady. She has survived the horrors of abuse and raised an incredibly close family. Theo could be special for the Giants.
no matter what Theo does  
John in Loudoun : 4/29/2024 9:57 am : link
his mom is definitely the star of that family. Much respect for this lady. As for Theo, I'm really rooting for this young man.

Theo is already a better inline blocker than Boss ever was
He feels....  
Giantsince80 : 4/29/2024 12:22 pm : link
Like the old trend of ex-basketball player that decides to go to football. Not saying he will be a Gates, but he's got the athleticism.
Wow, what a heart warming story!
