JERSEY CITY, NJ – Giants DE Justin Tuck and Jets S Erik Coleman may not normally be considered teammates, but that didn't prevent them from teaming up to do something wonderful for the Boys and Girls Club of Hudson County on Tuesday. The two NFL stars made a visit to Newport Centre in Jersey City, NJ, to sign autographs for holiday shoppers who were willing to donate a new, unwrapped toy to the cause.
