Jake Carlock’s 59-yard tip-drill pick-six in the Giants’ preseason opener on Thursday night certainly turned heads. The undrafted Long Islander found his way onto highlight reels across television, got the entire Giants’ sideline fired up and was a bit of a media darling in the locker room after the game.
But for Victor Ochi and Chuck Priore, Carlock’s big moment was nothing new.
Indeed, the Babylon native who spent his first three years of college at Stony Brook before finishing up at LIU Post had tipped a pass at the line of scrimmage, caught the ball off his own tip and sprinted down the sideline to the end zone once before in his career.
