Justin Tuck, the defensive lineman for the New York Giants, got sick of getting jerked around by the facemask last year, so he had the helmet maker Schutt fashion … that, which practically assures he won’t get facemasked in the coming year. Madden NFL 13 released a screenshot today showing that, yep, it’s in the game.
Most facemask penalties in the NFL involve grasping the cage of a ballcarrier or a quarterback, so it’s safe to say virtual Justin Tuck was already facemask-proof. Still cool to see him rocking a grill that looks like Baraka from Mortal Kombat.
