“I feel super grateful,” Ryan said. “Thankful to the Mara family, the Tisch family, (general manager) Dave Gettleman, (assistant general manager) Kevin Abrams, the coaching staff, (coach) Joe Judge, (defensive coordinator) Pat Graham. I really took a bet on myself waiting as long as I did and signing a one-year deal. I just wanted to prove to the fan base, the coaching staff and my teammates what type of player and leader I can be. And I honestly think I was proving it to myself as well. This year has been about a lot of belief. I always believed in myself and held my head high and worked out for me in the end and it worked out for the team in the end. I think it was a perfect fit from the beginning.”
Prior to the season, Ryan signed a one-year deal with the Giants worth $5.5 million. He is second on the Giants in tackles with 81 (58 solo) with one sack, three forced fumbles, a fumble recovery and nine passes defensed. Pro Football Focus has Ryan ranked 34th among all safeties this season.
The Giants are 5-9 and are still in the race for the NFC East title. Can Ryan help them win the NFC East and help lead them to the Super Bowl?
