He's sueing the wrong person... 

No, the ESPN "reporter" posted JPP's personal and legally private info in a highly public forum

 

The hospital has already settled with JPP and 2 employees were terminated

Exactly.  As I understand it, you normally can't get any relief of HIPPA laws from a reporter.  The person/institution to sue is the medical provider.  Technically, Shefter did not violate any laws.

Not that I'm an attorney, but I've heard a few speak on this subject.

On a side note, he should sign with the bucs! 

Good possibility Giants let him walk; he was still highly effective with them when he returned . The big killer was the club on his arm and lack of being able to grab. If the additional surgeries help him get any semblance of a grip he could still be a beast

1 sack in 8 games = highly effective? I'm a die hard Giants fan and love that guy, but he's nowhere near the same which is why there is a great chance the Giants let him walk if he's asking for a good chunk of change still. A rough way for a guy to put his career in a downward spiral.

36 tackles iirc. Lots of pressures. Just couldn't finish the job.

He had 24 QB hurries in 8 games, the league leader had 36 in 16. The sacks and tackles were down, yes, but that was in part with the club and not being able to grip. I'm also a huge Giants fan and thought he was done, but loved his tenacity to get himself in game shape and when he came on the field he made a difference; albeit they were the worst defense in the league.

JPP had to have had lots of distraction going into the half season he played. I think he'll do well next season and on a new team. Get that ESPN $ Jpp!
