Jason Pierre-Paul had his right index finger amputated on Wednesday as a result of a July 4 fireworks accident, according to multiple reports.

ESPN's Adam Schefter first tweeted Wednesday evening that Pierre-Paul's finger was amputated, citing medical records the network obtained. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport later confirmed the news.

The Giants said they will not have any comment on the report.

Earlier Wednesday, Giants officials left Miami without seeing Pierre-Paul, according to a league source. Team officials arrived in Miami on Monday, but were never able to visit with Pierre-Paul.

Ronnie Barnes, who is vice president of medical services for the Giants, was believed to be heading up the delegation the club sent to see how Pierre-Paul is faring and to make sure he has whatever medical resources he requires. The club is said to be maintaining a "patient and respectful" approach while Pierre-Paul undergoes medical treatment.

Multiple media outlets had reported that Pierre-Paul suffered a severe burn to the palm and three fingers of one hand and minor injuries to the other hand, and one finger might had suffered nerve damage. But before ESPN's report, the source said the Giants still had no direct knowledge of the nature and extent of the injuries.

As Newsday previously reported, negotiations between the Giants and Pierre-Paul for a long-term contract have not broken off, but given the July 15 deadline to reach such a deal, it seems unlikely. The Giants have given a franchise tender worth $14.8 million for the 2015 season to Pierre-Paul.

Bucs' Wilson loses two fingers, according to father

The father of Tampa Bay cornerback C.J. Wilson told a Charlotte, N.C., TV station that his son lost two fingers in a July 4 fireworks accident.

Curtis Wilson Sr., appearing on WBTV, said the fireworks did not pop out of the canister when they exploded.

The Buccaneers had confirmed that Wilson injured one of his hands in the July 4 accident. And his agent also told ESPN the incident involved fireworks.

In a statement Wednesday, the team said its "primary concern at this moment is for his long-term health."

Wilson was injured near his hometown of Lincolnton, N.C. He played at North Carolina State and has appeared in four NFL games over two seasons, two coming last year with the Bucs.

Maj. Lee Caskey of the Lincoln County sheriff's office said there was no call for an ambulance or emergency medical care that night, though a fire department and the sheriff's office were eventually called to a hospital where Wilson had been taken for treatment.

Caskey didn't have details about Wilson's injury.

Boger City Fire Department Chief Mitch Burgin said firefighters responded to a report of a fire in a car parked at the hospital that night, though it was out by the time they arrived.

In an e-mail to the Associated Press, Burgin said hospital staff put out a fire in the vehicle's trunk with extinguishers. Firefighters later arrived, removed "a smoldering pair of pants" from the trunk and "used water to completely extinguish" the pants.

Lincoln sheriff's Lt. William Brooks said he and others from his department also responded to the scene and saw blood inside the vehicle.

"There's not any kind of criminal investigation or anything going on into it," Brooks said. "It all appears to be just a bad accident."
