REBECCA: I recently spoke to Jameis Winston, who said “the time is now” for the Giants. Do you agree?

TIKI: I do agree with what he meant – that the time is now to turn the Giants around. I think the turnaround actually started last year. You saw it in how they played, how they stayed together throughout some of the bad times. They were this close. And I think with John Harbaugh coming in as the new head coach and a new staff, and some new faces here, the energy is real and the competency is real. As long as the talent stays healthy and keeps growing together, I think the sky can be the limit.

REBECCA: You just turned 51 – how are you feeling in this new year of life?
