David Tyree holds the candle for arguably the greatest catch in NFL History during Super Bowl 42 vs the Patriots, known as the “Helmet Catch”. What made the play even more incredible, was Eli Manning being able to escape a sack and get the ball out of his hands. Tyree will always be remembered for his incredible catch and TD in the Super Bowl. He was also one of the best Special Teamers for the New York Giants of the last 2 decades, making a Pro Bowl on Special Teams with Big Blue.
