JPP may not be living up to expectations this season, but that doesn’t take away what he’s brought to Big Blue through his first seven seasons. Pierre-Paul was key to New York’s Super Bowl run during the 2011 season, leading New York’s pass rush with 16.5 sacks that year. The Giants 2010 first-round pick out of South Florida holds the seventh most team sacks (54.5) in franchise history and will surely move up that list before calling it a career. Pierre-Paul missed half the 2015 season due to a July 4th fireworks accident but has since recorded 94 tackles, 11.5 sacks, and five forced fumbles in 21 games.
