Giants TE Donnell fine after plane incident

Published

on

New York Giants tight end Larry Donnell was among the 125 passengers aboard a Delta Air Lines jet that slid off a snowy runway at New York’s LaGuardia Airport on Thursday.

Six people reportedly suffered minor injuries when the plane — Flight 1086 from Atlanta — crashed through a chain-link fence and skidded to a halt at the edge of icy Flushing Bay. Donnell said he was fine.

“I’m blessed to be safe and sound after our plane skidded off the runway at LaGuardia airport today,” Donnell said in a statement released by the Giants. “I feel fine physically and hopefully all the other passengers did not have any significant injuries. We were all shocked and alarmed when the plane started to skid, but most importantly, as far as I know, all of the passengers and flight crew were able to exit the plane safely.”

Donnell, an exclusive-rights free agent, was coming from Atlanta to sign his one-year contract tender.

Donnell, who was undrafted out of Grambling State in 2012, emerged as the Giants’ top tight end last season, when he caught 63 passes for 623 yards and six touchdowns.
