Pierce says he is no longer a Giant
Veteran linebacker Antonio Pierce claims that he has been released by the New York Giants after five years with the team.
Despite being cut, Pierce said that he feels great and is looking forward to the future opportunities he knows he will see coming his way.
Pierce was played on injured reserve on November 30 this past season because of a bulging disc in his neck. He had one year remaining on his current contract.
Pierce was once the team’s leading tackler but was most well known for his involvement with Plaxico Burress the night he shot himself in the thigh with his gun.
The linebacker had initially tried to help the wide receiver cover up the shooting so that neither player would get into any kind of trouble.
