Jason Pierre-Paul -- Close Up Photo of Mangled Hand

Here it is ... the most clear up-close shot of the hand Jason Pierre-Paul blew up in a fireworks accident on July 4 -- and it's a miracle he even got back on the field.

The New York Giants defensive end gave the media a good look during a locker room interview with reporters in which he said, "I'm still Jason Pierre-Paul. I'm ready to play football."

JPP says he's still not 100% ready to go ... but expects to be playing within the next couple of weeks.
