David Wilson, Ex-Giants RB, Struggles in Triple Jump at Adidas Grand Prix

Former New York Giants running back David Wilson made his competitive debut in the triple jump Saturday at the Adidas Grand Prix, and the results were a bit mixed.

According to ESPN.com, Wilson managed 48 feet, 1 1/4 inches, which was roughly five feet worse than his personal best dating back to his college days. He finished ninth out of the nine triple-jumpers to participate.

Wilson admitted on Twitter that he's disappointed with the result but won't get too down since it's only his first pro event:

I'm not proud about my performance today but it was my first comp.
