Long before he suits up in New York Giants blue and steps foot onto the field, offensive lineman Jermaine Eluemunor is going to be a fan favorite.
On the first day of the NFL’s legal tampering period, the Giants agreed to terms with Eluemunor on a two-year, $14 million deal. What position he ultimately plays has yet to be determined, but it won’t matter. The energy he brings will endear him to the fanbase.
Even before pen was put to paper, Eluemunor began to express his elation over joining the Giants. The mere thought of putting on that classic Giants helmet turned the 6-foot-4, 330-pound monster of a man into a giddy, excited child on Christmas morning.
I’m excited AF to be a @Giants cannot wait to get started and help this team in anyway I can 💙 y’all won’t regret it I promise

Given how poorly the Giants have played over the past decade, many began to question Eluemunor’s exhilaration. But instead of backing off his initial comments, he doubled and tripled down.
Woke up this morning and it finally hit me that I get to play for the freaking Giants. Man I’m so damn excited to put that beautiful blue helmet on 💙 Can’t wait!

Pressed further about why he was so excited to join a struggling franchise, Eluemunor elaborated.
My excitement to be a Giant comes from 2 things. 1. It’s the freaking Giants who wouldn’t want to play for one of the biggest most well known teams in the world and 2. It’s the Freaking New York Giants. Hope that answers y’all’s questions, see you all soon!

This is the most excited a player has been over joining the Giants in a long, long time.
