7) Zeke Mowatt

Years: 1983-1989; 1991

Legacy: Super Bowl Champion (XXI)

Zeke Mowatt has done something few tight-ends in the history of the NY Giants have – caught a touchdown en route to a Super Bowl victory.

Phil Simms found Mowatt for a six yard touchdown pass to give the Giants a 7-3 lead over the Denver Broncos – a score that helped propel the team to their first ever Super Bowl title. It would be his only catch of the game, but the impact of it was enormous.

He never recreated his 1984 season, where he caught six touchdowns – but Mowatt was a key role player on some of the best teams in Giants’ history.
