New York Giants defensive end Justin Tuck told Giants.com that his goal this offseason is to get back to playing the way he used to.
Just work my butt off to become Justin Tuck of old. Do whatever I can do as a leader in a leadership role to prepare this team for a championship run next year. And get some rest and just come back knowing that regardless of what happened this year, we still have a very quality football team that could put it all together again next year and have an epic 2013.
I’m the Giants and their fans would love to see the fiery old Tuck that was a monster for opposing offensive line’s to handle. It seems like to me that he lacks the fire he once had as a younger player.
