For July fourth’s celebrations, the New York Giants’ Defensive End Jason Pierre-Paul had a fireworks accident that injured his hand.
On July 4th, Jason’s neighbors were posting IG pics of the load of fireworks that Jason had purchased for celebrations and it’s a shocker!

Yeah, Jason didn’t just buy fireworks for his family, he rented U-haul van and filled it with boxes of fireworks for July 4th fun. Jason posted a vid on IG with his baby before the unfortunate accident and you can clearly see the U-Haul van in the background too.
Luckily, Jason didn’t lose any fingers and the accident was reportedly not a career ending injuring, but he did severely burn the palm of his hand and three fingertips and the doctors are testing one of the fingers for any nerve damage that could have occurred.
Jason was the 15th overall first round pick for the New York Giants in 2010 and for 2015, Jason the Giants placed their franchise tag on him for $14.8 million.
I guess they the Giants will have to see what happens with the docs tell Jason Pierre-Paul.
