I don’t think any #Giants acquisition has helped himself more through his words & passion more than Jermaine Eluemunor. And there is a lot to work with on the field here too. Some really impressive moments early in his career & continuing with the coach who got him here. Let’s go https://t.co/bCbzd1d0HW

Jermaine Eluemunor chose No. 72, famously last worn by Osi Umenyiora, as a tribute to Osi, whom JE called "my guy."
Jermaine will wear No. 72 and promised Osi he will wear it well, always play with high energy and effort.
Jermaine Eluemunor loves to talk. Praised Carmen Bricillo, feels he will help improve the Giants O-line. Talked about working every day, grit, etc. Jermaine talked about the love to wear the blue helmet and being a Giant. Jermaine said he is versatile and will play any position
Before taking number 72 with the Giants, Jermaine Eluemunor reached out to Osi Umenyiora to get his blessing to wear the number "I made a promise to him that I'll play at an extremely high level" https://t.co/eqT0LoMCcn
I asked @TheMainShow_ about choosing 72 with the #NYGiants: he reached out to @OsiUmenyiora, another London-born NFLer, and asked permission, which was granted. Jermaine says Osi told him to represent, and he plans on playing at a high level. https://t.co/KhNtKAQnE7
I think Jermaine Eluemunor is as excited as any player to join #Giants in the last 7 years. I asked him why, considering they haven't won much since he's been in NFL "That helmet and that uniform just sticks out to me. For me, coming here to this franchise was always a dream."
