Jason Pierre-Paul has reassured New York Giants supporters that he will be in the best possible physical shape for the new season.

The defensive end skipped the Giants' voluntary off-season workout program and he was not required to attend a mini-camp last week because he has not yet signed his tender with the team.

However, the two-time Pro Bowler used his Instagram account to insist that he is working hard to lose weight this summer.

If anybody had any concern of what I'm weighing right now, well guess what numbers don't lie here it is. My playing weight this year, I'm dropping 10lb baby. I want to be 265lb lets get it. #90PC
