Brandon Jacobs bonds with 6-year-old fan

AP  Eyewitness NewsNEW JERSEY -- He now plays in San Francisco, but former Giants running back Brandon Jacobs hasn't forgotten one loyal young fan back in New Jersey.

Eyewitness News told you about a couple of weeks ago how 6-year old Joseph Armento emptied his piggy bank, hoping the $3.36 would help convince Jacobs to stay a Giant.

It didn't, but when Jacobs came back to the area recently, he took Joseph to 'The Bounce House' to play on trampolines, gave him a signed helmet and $5 to replenish his piggy bank.
