We all know that Ted Ginn is fast. He always has been. Whether you watched him at Ohio State, or in Miami, or San Francisco, Carolina, or now in Arizona, you know that any time he touches the ball, it could turn into something special.
That is what happened with ten minutes remaining in the Arizona Cardinals’ game against the New York Giants. The Giants punted the ball to Ginn, and it looks like they had him wrapped up. Until they didn’t.

Ginn showed a couple of nifty moves, and was moving so fast that he had to use the tunnel as a deceleration ramp. Either that or he just decided that he had done enough for one day.
Ginn’s 71 yard return gave the Cardinals the lead back at 19-14. The two point conversion attempt failed.
This was the fourth punt return touchdown of his career for Ginn, and his first since 2011 in San Francisco. He also has returned three kickoffs for touchdowns in his career, but the last one of those also came during the 2011 season.
The Arizona Cardinals now lead the Giants 22-14 with six minutes remaining, but the Giants are driving. All I know is that if they have to punt again, they will probably aim away from Ginn!
