Phil Simms and Lawrence Taylor retired together, and now the Giants legends are together again at the center of rookie Abdul Carterâs jersey number selection process.
Carter said Friday on X that it would be an âhonorâ to wear Simmsâ No. 11 if it is unretired â a proposition that the Super Bowl-winning quarterback sounded OK with during his appearance on FanDuel TV.
But Simms didnât really think then that Carter would ask â and heâs still not sure that the conversation will be had.
And it does not seem â at least for now â that Carter will get to share the same No. 11 in blue.
