Justin Pugh is well aware of the target on his forehead heading into Saturday night’s annual Giants-Jets clash. What was it Muhammad Wilkerson called it again?

“Yeah, a red dot,” Pugh said Thursday with a smirk. “I was laughing about it. I know Mo. I see him at charity events and Rangers games. I don’t think it’s that big of a deal, but everyone else does.”

Pugh is less than 48 hours away from having to answer for his July 7 tweet digging at New York’s less successful franchise.

“At the airport and I forgot a hat. They only have @nyjets hats. All of them untouched. Literally not one @Giants hat left…Wonder why?” the 6-5, 311-pound O-lineman wrote earlier this summer.

Wilkerson, the Jets’ 6-4, 315 pound defensive lineman, took exception and promised to make Pugh pay.

“Lol bro now u got the red dot see you 8/26 a(t) MetLife,” Wilkerson tweeted early on July 8.
