Gio had plenty of trash talk ready for the Giants on Friday, just before New York upset his Vikings over Wild Card weekend.
On Thursday, former Giants running back Brandon Jacobs made a visit to WFAN, and Gio wasn’t sure how to respond when he came into the studio.
“Are you here to kick my a--?” Gio laughed.
“I don’t know what you’ve heard, but really, I have the ultimate respect for that organization.”
Jacobs wasn’t there to beat Gio up, but he did make sure to troll him for his Vikings fandom, while gifting him with a Giants shirt.
“How in the world does a guy living on this side of the country root for the Vikings?” Jacobs said, before giving Gio a shirt that read “Our Way” with the Giants logo.
“This is what we do when we make the playoffs and do things the right way…this is what we do. We do things our way. Not your way, not the Vikings’ way, not the Eagles’ way, our way.”
As for why Gio is a Minnesota fan, it began when he was much younger, but still a decision he regrets.
“Worst decision of my life,” Gio said.
