At least he didn’t shoot himself

He was a steal at #6 from Syracuse, where he was a good receiver. He also caught a touch down pass in that Super Bowl. And he was a great special teams tackler. We fans of the G-Men will miss him. God speed, D.T.!

Hooby says: “he will go down in history with freddie mitchell”
Yeah. He went to the Pro Bowl for his special teams play. He was an outstanding gunner. Also, he is one of the nicest guys in the game. Very humble and polite. Freddy Mitchell was, and still is, a useless, arrogant douche. That comparison did nothing but make you look like an ass.

Not a great WR, but a beast as a ST Gunner. He’ll get picked up by Monday because of his ST skills

You can’t make a career out of one great catch.

Josh Alper, i know aside from a few nationally covered playoff games, and the SB, you obviously dont watch Giants games, you failed to mention hes a Pro Bowler and for a 3 yr span top 3 specialists in the league.

He is known with Giants fans as more than that catch, all the freddie mitchell remarks and how awful of a player he was, he wasnt even known as a key wideout for the Giants, he was a special teams player, who actually made the pro bowl, he was a specialist as a gunner. Do people comment without even knowing anything?

David Tyree was drafted as a special teams ace.
He made the pro bowl as a special teams player.
As a receiver, he was underwhelming – but did make a catch that will live forever.
He will be missed, but not fogotten.

Let’s not forget that it’s a privilege to play in the NFL guys. That’s why guys like him are on…..oh wait. Nevermind.

If you can’t make the Giants as a WR, then your options are extremely limited.

Who is Mike “Garofalo”?

Forget the fact that he caught a touchdown in said Super Bowl as well.

Tyree was big play in the biggest game. But he was strong throughout the playoffs that season.
To get someone who not only have Super Bowl experience, but played his biggest game during the Super Bowl- and not 40 years old, is very rare.
If I was a playoff contender with room, I would pick him up quick. You listening Falcons? He comes with special teams ability and a Super Bowl Ring.

Actually, maybe he was known outside of NY for “the catch” but he was beloved by Giants fans for his superior special teams play. Earlier in his career he was one of the best in the game and earned a spot in the probowl for it.
Unfortunately he hasn’t been the dominant gunner for a while and there was just too much competition at wr for him to compete even if not for his injuries.
I would guess he catches on as a #4 wr, maybe a #3 somewhere that is pass catcher needy if is health allows.

Even the league minimum is like what $350,000 a yr, and the guy had one of the greatest catches in super bowl history. I could live with that, and I know my bank account could too.
So Yea, I don’t think he’s too worried. Someone will pick ‘em up. Probably Dallas out of spite.

He was never “ordained great”. He was a role player who made the best of what he had.

I STILL can’t believe he caught that ball!
A funny thing happened on the way to history…David Tyree.

Eli Manning should give him one last BJ on the way to the airport. He wouldn’t have that contract if not for David Tyree.

I hope and believe David will find another spot – I hate cut day.

He had his 15 minutes – he was never a good WR anyway, more of a body.
Tyree will be remembered forever, he’s etched in NFL lore.

He caught 1 pass with his head and he was ordained great. This scenario with him is a testament to the addage, “Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see.”
