Antonio Pierce Torn Down Along With Giants Stadium

As Giants stadium was being torn down this weekend, it appears as if Antonio Pierce was locked in the building and set for demolition too. NFL sources are reporting, along with Pierce, that the Giants are done with the veteran linebacker.

Talk about hitting the panic button. The NY Giants are bailing on Antonio Pierce, who at age 32, suffered a herniated disc in week 9, but still finished the season with 55 tackles.

Pierce has said that his MRIs were positive, and that he’s on track to be ready for next season, but it’s clear that the Giants aren’t buying that.

With one year left on his 2005 free agent contract, Pierce, who led the Giants in tackles for three straight seasons before his injury last season, is now looking for a new job.

It must be a poop-storm in NY after the Giants started out 5-0 only to finish 8-8.
