Sunday Program: The 5 Most Religious Football Players and Coaches

New York Giants Defensive End Justin Tuck

Justin Tuck, a two-time Pro Bowl defensive end and two-time Super Bowl champion has the respect of his fellow teammates both for his hard-charging style of play on the field and his faith in Christ.


In Men of Sunday, Tuck spoke about the temptations that come with playing in the NFL, especially women, that often prove challenging to his teammates. Now married and the father of a one-year-old, Tuck cautions younger teammates that when women offer themselves at camp or at a club: “It’s probably not because you are handsome. They want to get pregnant.”

Tuck said he had sex before marriage and one of the greatest regrets of his life is that he didn’t save himself for his wife.


“To this day I wish I could take it back,” he said. “Just knowing that I could have saved myself for her, and there would have been nothing impure about it … I wish I could go back.”
