LB Antonio Pierce

Years with NYG: 2005-09

One of the smartest players ever to wear a Giants uniform, Pierce is part of the franchise’s rich tradition at linebacker. He led a top-10 defense in 2007 and a top-five unit in 2008. In their 2007 title run, his defense never allowed more than 20 points in four postseason games, including limiting the record-setting Patriots offense to just 14 points in Super Bowl XLII.

WR Victor Cruz

Years with NYG: 2010-2016

Signed as an undrafted free agent out of UMass after an impressive preseason in 2010, Cruz burst onto the scene a year later and was the catalyst in the Giants’ Super Bowl XLVI championship run.
