New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin said Saturday he finally spoke to star defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul.
The two had a "good conversation" on Friday according to Coughlin, who also said Pierre-Paul wouldn't return to the team until he's healthy enough to get on the field.
"He's looking forward to coming," Coughlin said. "He's anxious to be here. But he's not going to come until he feels like he's ready to be able to play."
The news comes a day after Giants defensive line coach Robert Nunn said he exchanged texts with Pierre-Paul, who said he'd be back.
