HOUSTON -- Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul has settled his lawsuit against ESPN and reporter Adam Schefter out of court.
Pierre-Paul was suing Schefter and ESPN for publishing an image of his medical records in July of 2015 when Schefter reported Pierre-Paul's right index finger had been amputated after his hand was severely damaged in a fireworks accident.
A judge allowed the case to proceed in August, denying an ESPN motion to have it thrown out on First Amendment grounds. ESPN announced the settlement, the terms of which were undisclosed and will be confidential, according to The New York Post.
