East Rutherford, NJ – Lawrence Taylor wants New York veterans to include Razor Abdul Carter who passed New York veterans to create their own legacy, which would not include the number 56 wearing the number 56 which Taylor did well during his mythological career.
Taylor told ESPN that the two picked the third overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft from Pen State two days after Carter on Saturday morning. It came after Carter to reach out through middlemen about wearing a retired number of Taylor.
Taylor recorded a respectful decline through middlemen. Taylor’s longtime agent, Mark Lipsalter and Carter’s Agent, Drew Rosenhus, then arranged a phone call later this week. Taylor wanted to show that he was supporting Rashar, the latest veteran, but he wanted him to make his own mark.
“To become the player who is,” Taylor told ESPN in a phone conversation. “He may not be another Lawrence Taylor. Well, he may be better than Lawrence Taylor, who knows. But he has to make his identity. It is on him.”
Taylor said: “And I am hoping that he is not thinking, ‘Oh, I was shot by lieutenant. No, it is not so, man.’ This is, ‘Hey, I’m with you!’ I mean, I am the man who takes two.
Carter, who posted a post on social media, showed a picture of Taylor on the wall in the feature of veterans during his predecessor journey, it felt that it was worth a shot. Taylor is considered the biggest defensive player of all time by many people, and the number 11 in college is also retired in honor of Phil Sims.
“The worst thing she could say was not !! My stance does not change, left X posted to X,
Carter has not decided on a number. He said that he was still in the process of finding out this during his introductory news conference in Giants Facility on Friday. But he knew a lot about Taylor through YouTube clip and stories of his greatness.
“I haven’t met him yet, but I feel that I will finally do,” Carter said. “But he is the biggest football ever, someone I see. Just knowing how great he was. I just want to chase greatness, and know that he was the best, I want to chase it. But I did not say, ‘I want to be better than Lawrence Taylor.” It is more looking at me, inspired to be like him. ,
Next month, Taylor made arrangements to meet and travel with Carter in Team Suvidha for some time.
Carter’s plan to ask for 56 came to light during an interview with a Bleker report when she was drafted. The New York Post reported on Friday night that it was not going to happen.
“I know he would like to wear that number, but hey, I think it’s retired. Get another number, I don’t care if it’s double zero, and then famous it,” Taylor told the post. But Taylor clarified that there was no sick intention. The request was not in any humiliating way.
In fact, both of them closed it during their initial conversation.
“I mean, man is a great player, and I will tell you that, I talked to him on the phone for just a few minutes, I mean, what a personality is,” Taylor said. “I mean, he feels as if he is a good boy.”
Taylor was the second overall pick in the 1981 NFL draft. He helped to roam around the giants, winning the team to win a defensive Raki of the Year and the defensive player. He was named MVP in 1986 and the veterans were assisted in two Super Bowl Triumph during a 13 -year career with New York, including 132.5 sacks. Taylor took number 56 with veterans as he was a fan of Lineback Thomas “Hollywood” Henderson, who wore the number with Dallas Cowboy.
Uncontrolled a number for the first round draft pick is not completely foreigner for giants. Pick Malik Nabers of the first round of last year was allowed to wear number 1 from Late Ray Fleharti’s family.
