Giants D-line coach says Jason Pierre-Paul vows to be back

Robert Nunn can’t tell you how many fingers Jason Pierre-Paul still has (hey, join the club!), and he can’t tell you when the Giants’ star defensive end will be back.

But Nunn, the Giants’ veteran defensive line coach, is one of the few people in East Rutherford who’s been in constant communication with Pierre-Paul. And the D-line whisperer can tell everyone this: Pierre-Paul is going to be back.

“I’ve spoken to him on the phone. I’ve texted him back and forth, and mostly about things other than football,” Nunn said Friday. “(I’ve) texted him back and forth just to let him know we’re here for him.
