Four months after mangling his own right hand in that well-chronicled Fourth of July fireworks accident, Jason Pierre-Paul is giving back to those who have endured similar experiences.
On Tuesday, according to NJ.com, the Giants defensive end spent a few minutes in a FaceTime conversation, offering inspiration to Seamus Bohannon, an 11-year-old boy who had part of two fingers amputated. Bohannon, who is from Folsom, Pa., got his hand caught in a bicycle chain on Nov. 3 and had surgery two days later.
“This guy, he didn’t have to do it,” said Christine Bohannon, Seamus’ mother, to NJ.
