From the “worst kick” of his career to a Super Bowl for former Giants placekicker Lawrence Tynes

The New York Giants are facing off against The Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving in a division rivalry game that could determine which team comes out on top of the dominant NFC East.

Tynes spoke to In the Moment’s David Greene about how he came back from that missed kick to send the Giants to the Super Bowl.
