Giants will need more than Tom Coughlin jumping jacks to make playoffs

Sports

Giants coach Tom Coughlin does jumping jacks at his Thursday press conference.

Tom Coughlin broke out the jumping jacks — at the age of 69 — to liven up a mid-week press conference.

Coughlin was asked Thursday whether seeing the Cowboys upset the Redskins on Monday night, after the emotional loss the Giants endured against the Jets (23-20 in overtime), had done anything to change the emotions at the next team meeting. The Redskins’ loss put the Giants in a three-way tie for first place in the NFC East.

With that, Coughlin stepped back from the lectern and did a few of the most precise jumping jacks you’ve ever seen.
