Former New York Giants’ safety and special teamer Nate Ebner is currently training to earn a spot on the United States national rugby team for the 2021 Tokyo Summer Olympics.
Ebner earned a spot on the US rugby team for the last summer Olympics in 2016 in Rio and was a part of the opening ceremony.
Even though Ebner is a free agent, Giants’ head coach Joe Judge told reporters on Saturday that he expects him to play for Big Blue this coming season.
“We are proud to support Nate in his effort to earn a place on the United States National Rugby team,” Judge said.
