In addition to his success on the football field, David Tyree has also enjoyed a successful career off the field as well. After his retirement from the NFL as a player, he spent two years at NFL League Headquarters in NYC, working in the Player Engagement Department. In July 2014, he received a second homecoming when the New York Football Giants named him as the Director of Player Development. Since leaving that position in 2019, David is making headway as an entrepreneur and sports analyst. Starting in 2021, he began co-hosting “Odds with Ends” on MSG alongside former Giants defensive end Mathias Kiwanuka.

David graduated from Montclair High School in 1998 with a full four-year athletic scholarship to Syracuse University. He excelled as a wide receiver and special teams player through unparalleled work ethic and endurance. David was then drafted in the 6th round of the 2003 NFL Draft by the New York Giants (211 overall). Despite humble beginnings and personal challenges, he was named to the 2006 Pro Bowl and was responsible for making NFL history with what many consider to be the greatest catch in Super Bowl history.
