Justin Pugh Signs Deal With Bean Bag Company After 'Coming Off Couch' For New York Giants
New York Giants lineman Justin Pugh is happy to be playing for the G-Men after five weeks of watching from his living room.
Pugh entered the season as a free agent. His first game was Week 6's Sunday night loss to the Buffalo Bills, where Pugh memorably introduced himself as coming "straight off the couch."
Well, that primetime intro may have led to an off-the-field deal for Pugh.
On Monday, the lineman posted a photo on his social media, revealing a new team-up with the Love Sac company. Love Sac specializes in bean bag chairs — not quite the upgrade from a couch but ad dollars nonetheless!
Not bad for a guy who's missed more than half the season.
"Straight off the couch 🤝 straight to the @lovesac 🤝 straight to a Victory Monday," Pugh posted on social media.
Pugh played for the Arizona Cardinals from 2018 to 2022 before his second stint with the Giants. New York drafted Pugh with the 19th overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft.
His addition to the team and quiet success runs parallel to a newfound toughness from the Giants ever since Tyrod Taylor took over as QB for the injured Daniel Jones.
Expect the Giants injured offensive line to lean heavily on the veteran lineman moving forward.
