Head coach Tom Coughlin and team doctors initially feared the worst -- that Thomas had torn the same ACL and would be gone for the season and possible his career. "The MRI came out negative," he said. "But you know, it just felt a little bit weird." After a follow-up consultation with Dr. James Andrews, Thomas was put at ease that he didn't have a major injury. "Aggravated," said Thomas, "is the best way to put it. An ACL is so simple.

New York Giants’ Terrell Thomas Says He Could Return from “Aggravated” ACL in 3-8 Weeks

In what head coach Tom Coughlin called a best case scenario, New York Giants cornerback Terrell Thomas was back in Albany on Wednesday with what has amounted to an “aggravated” ACL. In other words, the veteran did not tear said ACL for the third time, and could return to the field in as little as three weeks. “It’s something that it could be three weeks, it could be eight...

Something just happened in Giants camp that hasn’t seemed to happen in about 3 years.  Not since Michael Strahan announced that he would be playing a final year has something like this happened in a Big Blue summer.  Something so shocking, I’m not sure if I can actually believe it.  The Giants have actually received some good news in regards to an injury.

Eli Manning: What Do The Numbers Say

By: Michael Samuels II Eli Manning, winner of two of super bowls in the last five years. Two super bowl MVP’s and his last name is Manning. Crazy how quick times change, last year Eli Manning’s name would have never came up in a discussion of elite QBs in the game. One “decent” year and a team that came together at the right time can change that apparently. When I look at...

Each regular season has what Players View calls the “invincible losers.”  This group powers their way through the regular season kicking sand in the face of lesser opponents only to watch somebody else win the Super Bowl.
