He needed it like a kick in the head.
Comedian Jim Gaffigan, who jokes about his five children who torment him and his wife Jeannie, received new documents after his daughter injured a Queens man with a football.
James Kent was working on a television commercial starring Gaffigan in 2016 when he was "severely" injured by 11-year-old Marre Gaffigan of Gaffigan.

Gaffigan, Granger and Moxie did not respond to requests for comment.
