The New York Giants’ brass dedicated the month of March in 2016 to investing heavily in fixing a defensive unit that ranked dead last in the NFL by the end of the 2015 season.
Amongst their big-money dealings was the extension of Jason Pierre-Paul’s time in East Rutherford following his infamous fireworks incident the previous summer.
The defensive end would go on to play a starring role in Ben McAdoo’s maiden season as head coach, registering seven sacks, three forced fumbles and 53 tackles as the Giants reached the playoffs for the first time since 2011.
