Jason Pierre-Paul donates to hospital burn unit

Jason Pierre-Paul continues to meet the aftermath of his life-altering fireworks accident head-on.

The New York Giants defensive end, who suffered severe burns and other serious injuries (including the loss of his right index finger) last July 4, is visiting New York Presbyterian Hospital today along with CareOne Management to present a $20,000 check to the hospital's burn unit and spend time talking to burn survivors.

Pierre-Paul is a pending free agent who may or may not return to the Giants next season. But since his return from the accident in November, he has been consistently gregarious and engaging, and has openly answered all questions about his condition and some about the accident itself.
