Donnell’s agent confirmed with the New York Post that the tight end is OK, and a FDNY spokesperson said that no injuries have been reported among the 125 passengers and five crew members. Donnell was heading back to New York to sign a one-year, $585,000 contract with the Giants.
Donnell commented on the incident, via the Giants’ website:
I’m blessed to be safe and sound after our plane skidded off the runway at LaGuardia airport today. I feel fine physically and hopefully all the other passengers did not have any significant injuries. We were all shocked and alarmed when the plane started to skid, but most importantly, as far as I know, all of the passengers and flight crew were able to exit the plane safely.
