Justin Tuck: 'We didn't like coach Coughlin'
The recently retired defensive end gave a tribute to Tom Coughlin and the tough love he showed his players.
Justin Tuck, who signed a one-day contract to retire as a New York Giants, gave a passionate, off-the-cuff retirement speech Friday.
The star defensive end highlighted his career from its start in 2005, where he felt he wasn’t drafted high enough, to now getting accepted into the Wharton business school to pursue an MBA.
As the speech was told “from the heart”, nothing was more truthful and honest than when Tuck thanked former head coach Tom Coughlin. The 33-year-old brought to light the one thing his head coach taught him that he carries with him to this day.
