Jermaine Eluemunor putting his money where his mouth is with career year after re-signing with Giants

Jermaine Eluemunor is having a career year as the New York Giants’ right tackle after re-signing with the team. His form challenges the stereotype that players’ performance can drop after securing a major contract, and he says his drive comes from wanting to dominate opponents.

Born in England, Eluemunor spent five seasons moving between NFL teams before the Raiders made him a starter in 2022. He only settled into one position last season with the Giants, after previously serving as a utility starter. He says being paid is welcome, but playing well and improving remain his main motivations.
