New York Giants Legend Lawrence Tynes Honored as One of Top 100 Players in Franchise History.
The New York Giants have named Lawrence Tynes as the 91st player on their prestigious Top 100 Players list.
A Legacy of Clutch Performances.
Lawrence Tynes is best remembered for his game-winning kicks in two NFC Championship Games, both of which propelled the Giants to Super Bowl victories. In 2007, Tynes nailed a 47-yard field goal in overtime at Lambeau Field, clinching a 23-20 victory over the Green Bay Packers in freezing temperatures. Four years later, he repeated his heroics with a 31-yard overtime kick against the San Francisco 49ers, once again sending the Giants to the Super Bowl.
Postseason heroics define Tynes’ legacy, but they were far from his only contributions. Born in Scotland, where his father was a U.S. Navy officer at the time, Tynes climbed to second on the franchise’s all-time scoring list with 586 points on 122 field goals made.
More Than Just a Postseason Hero.
While Tynes’ clutch postseason performances are legendary, they represent just part of his overall contribution to the Giants. Born in Scotland, Tynes rose to become the second-highest scorer in franchise history with 586 points, including 122 field goals. His reliability and precision over the years have made him a true Giants legend.
Tynes’ place on the Giants’ Top 100 Players list is a fitting tribute to a player whose legacy is defined by his consistency and ability to perform under pressure. Giants fans will forever remember the key role he played in two unforgettable Super Bowl runs.
