9. Gary Reasons

Accolades: two-time Super Bowl Champion

Up next is Gary Reasons (10 interceptions in 122 games), one of the more underrated members of the NY Giants 80s/90s Super Bowl teams. Despite this, Reasons played a huge role in both victories, most notably running for 30 yards on a fake punt in the fourth quarter of the 1990 NFC Championship against the 49ers.

Similar to Kelley, Reasons is another player who has very few stats recorded. This makes it somewhat difficult to determine just how good he was. However, after doing research, we can confidently say that Reasons deserves to make this list due to the role he played in both the NY Giants Super Bowl victories.

While Reasons would have a somewhat short career, only playing nine years in the NFL, eight came with the Giants. The impact he had on the Giants success during his tenure with the team is enough to propel him into the No. 9 spot
