Giants rookie quarterback arrested on way to practice

New York Giants backup quarterback Kyle Lauletta — who many fans believe should replace Eli Manning as the team’s starter — was busted in New Jersey on Tuesday morning for allegedly nearly hitting a police officer with his car, according to a report.

The 23-year-old rookie from the University of Richmond was on his way to Big Blue’s practice facility in East Rutherford when he failed to obey an officer’s directions in Weehawken, NJ.com reported.

He came close to striking the cop with his car.

“We are aware of the situation and are in contact with Kyle,” an official with the Giants told NJ.
