Report: Pierre-Paul still healing but 'ready' to play

The wait for Jason Pierre-Paul to return to the football field following a fireworks accident that led to a finger amputation might be over.

Jordan Raanan of NJ Advance Media cites a source who said the defensive end is in New Jersey and “ready” to play. Raanan said:

“Pierre-Paul been working out hard in South Florida and is in condition to play, according to the source. The hand, however, is still healing.”

Pierre-Paul, who is technically not yet under contract, sustained the injury during Fourth of July celebrations and has not been around the Giants since the accident.
