Justin Pugh had a storybook moment for the Giants last week, going from free agent to starting offensive lineman for New York against the Bills. Pugh's sudden elevation to the starting lineup was highlighted early in the game, when, for his Sunday Night Football intro, he mentioned he was from “off the couch” instead of his college, Syracuse.
On Wednesday, Pugh explained why he chose to go with his unique introduction.
“I was a fan last week watching football. How many times can you be a fan watching your favorite team, the New York Giants, then the next Sunday you get to go play for that team on Sunday Night Football? That is a story,” Pugh said.
