Jason Pierre-Paul is not too bright, either.

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.

I heard it has not been actually offered and accepted so he is technically not under contract at all right now.

 

I think it was offered but not accepted. There is a deadline (may be July 15) for him and the team to work out a long-term deal or he has to play under the franchise tag. So while he isn't under contract right now, they have tagged him.

ESPN obtained some info from the hospital. If JPP didn't authorize the release of that info I wonder if the hospital or ESPN could be in some trouble.

 

Apparently the Giants offered to have a hand specialist look at his hand and he declined.

 

Not sure how I feel about all this. I'll wait for everything to come out I guess.

 

Regardless, the Giants have the worst luck with injuries lol. They've had far more the last two years than any other team in the NFL, then things like this happen.

Yes. the Giants have by a significant amount. I thought the Bengals had a lot also. But they have been mid pack in starters lost the last two years.

 

Regardless, You just can't fix stupid JPP.

 

Actually he will be franchised but this being a non football injury, he will not paid for games he loses due to this. At his tag price that is about 750k a game. As I said, you can't fix stupid, or really Ron White says this, but I should've thought of it to say.

I see some hammering ESPN for the release of the medical records, but presumably they had to be leaked to them.

 

Weird situation.
