Giants Injury Report: Hakeem Nicks, Ramses Barden

Found October 04, 2012 on NFL Injury Report: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Hakeem Nicks,  Ramses Barden
TEAMS: New York Giants,  Philadelphia Eagles,  Cleveland Browns,  Carolina Panthers
New-york-giants


Question marks continue to surround New York Giants wide receivers, as Hakeem Nicks and Ramses Barden each missed practice yesterday. Nicks continued to be sidelined by injuries to his knee and foot, while Barden was still feeling the effects of a concussion he suffered during a Week 4 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Nicks is reportedly moving better on his injured leg, but his status for Sunday’s game against the Cleveland Browns remains unclear. The 24-year-old has only been able to suit up for two games this season, catching 14 passes for 237 yards and one touchdown.
Barden was able to step up for the Nicks-less Giants in a big way during their Week 3 contest against the Carolina Panthers. The 26-year-old caught nine passes for 138 yards.
If Nicks and Barden are unavailable for Sunday’s game, the Giants will use Domenik Hixon as their second wide receiver beside starter Victor Cruz.
