New York Giants offensive lineman Justin Pugh has become something of an internet sensation. It dates to the Sunday night game against the Bills. Pugh, who was signed to the Giants' practice squad on Oct. 2, ended up starting at left guard.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — After overcoming a major knee injury and playing for the first time in more than a year, all New York Giants offensive lineman Justin Pugh wanted to do was call his wife and hear her voice.
What many people wanted to talk about was the way Pugh introduced himself to the television audience on the NBC broadcast of the nationally televised game: “Justin Pugh, straight off the couch.”QB Tyson Bagent has come a long way, from D-II to likely starter for Bears with Justin Fields hurtThe 33-year-old Pugh, who was drafted by the Giants in the first round in 2013 and later signed with Arizona as a free agent, has always said he played at Syracuse.
“I truly was watching last ‘Sunday Night Football’ on the couch,” Pugh said. “It just hit me, like, I was a fan last week watching football. How many times can you be a fan watching your favorite team, the New York Giants, and the next Sunday you get to go play for that team on ‘Sunday Night Football’?
Not only was Pugh a hit on the internet, the Giants liked his performance. He was signed to the active roster on Wednesday. He will probably start again Sunday at MetLife Stadium against Washington .
