New York — The Giants are aware of an incident involving Jason Pierre-Paul and fireworks, but the team is unsure about the severity of any injuries to the star defensive end, a person with knowledge of the incident tells The Associated Press on Monday.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because no information has been released publicly.

The team said in a statement that its first concern is for Pierre-Paul's well-being.

Pierre-Paul mentioned fireworks in a video posted to Instagram on Saturday, taken as he held a baby in a street near a parked rental van.

"Talk about fireworks on the ground," Pierre-Paul said.

Pierre-Paul was to play 2015 on the $14.8 million franchise tag. But the two-time Pro Bowl pick has yet to sign the tender. The Giants can rescind the tender offer and make Pierre-Paul an unrestricted free agent. He's earned more than $16 million in his first five seasons.

Selected with the 15th overall pick in the 2010 NFL draft, Pierre-Paul didn't start any games his rookie season. He had a breakout year in 2011, posting a career-high 16 [1/2] sacks and playing a key role in helping the Giants beat the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl.

The 26-year-old Pierre-Paul has 42 career sacks, including 12 [1/2] last season.
