Giants icons Lawrence Taylor and Ottis Anderson speak at a Donald Trump rally.
Lawrence Taylor and Ottis “O.J.” Anderson, two New York Giants icons, made surprise debuts at Donald Trump’s campaign rally in Wildwood, New Jersey on Saturday.
The former president brought the two to the microphone, and the almost 100,000 people in attendance gave them a standing ovation.
Taylor remarked, “I grew up as a Democrat and have always been a Democrat until I met this man right here.” “Nobody in my family ever will vote for a Democrat again.”
Anderson was a little more reserved when it was his turn to talk.
“Don’t you just love that guy?” Anderson remarked, referring to Taylor. “Today has been a really amazing day. Not a single person has departed. You are still here, yelling and screaming.
Anderson was the Cardinals’ first-round pick in the 1979 NFL draft. He was moved to the Giants following the 1986 season and went on to have a successful career in East Rutherford, winning MVP in Super Bowl XXV over the Buffalo Bills. The two-time Super Bowl champion and 1989 Comeback Player of the Year was inducted into the Giants’ Ring of Honor in 2022.
