Jermaine Eluemunor isn’t going to apologize for his confidence.
The Giants right tackle drew criticism this week for comments made Tuesday on WFAN about his matchup last game with Steelers star T.J. Watt .
Giants offensive lineman Jermaine Eluemunor said he had a good game facing T.J. Watt during the Giants’ Week 8 loss to the Steelers.J.J. Watt, T.J.’s older brother, fired back at Eluemunor as a guest on the “Pat McAfee Show,” saying: “I mean, what are we doing here, man? You gave up a strip-sack that lost the game.”
Eluemunor was playing through a hip injury but talked last week about welcoming the challenge of being on an island with Watt, a former NFL Defensive Player of the Year. “The one thing that’s missed in all this is what, do you expect me to just lay down because I’m going against such and such?” Eluemunor said. “No, I’m always going to be confident. That’s not going to change. Doesn’t matter who I’m going against in football or life. I have been at rock bottom, where my confidence was as low as it can get. I’m not going to sit here worried about shaking my boots, staying up at night.
