Giants put Strahan on IR!
Quote:
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Seven-time Pro Bowl defensive end Michael Strahan will miss the rest of the season for the New York Giants after aggravating a sprained right foot last weekend against the New Orleans Saints.



Strahan
He was placed on injured reserve Tuesday and could need surgery, the team said.

The Giants (7-8) can almost surely clinch a playoff berth with a win over the Redskins (5-10) in the regular-season finale at Washington on Saturday.

Strahan, who shares the Giants' all-time sack record of 132½ with Lawrence Taylor, hurt the foot Nov. 5 against Houston. He was playing for the first time since the injury in Sunday's 30-7 loss to the Saints. The 14-year veteran had five tackles (three solo) and knocked down a pass before re-injuring the foot late in the contest.

Strahan had 50 tackles (34 solo) and three sacks this season, his lowest sack total since he had one as a rookie in 1993. His career sack total leaves him tied with Taylor and Leslie O'Neal for seventh on the all-time NFL list.

The Giants have also placed offensive tackle Luke Petitgout and returner Chad Morton on injured reserve. Morton suffered a knee injury on Sunday. Petitgout broke a leg against Chicago on Nov. 12.

The Giants had kept Petitgout on the active roster, hoping that he might recover and play again this season. However, he has not made enough progress.

New York signed free agent receiver Darius Watts, tight end Darcy Johnson from their practice squad, and running back Robert Douglas from the Houston Texans' practice squad.

Watts was a second-round draft choice by the Denver Broncos in 2004. He caught 31 passes for 385 yards and a touchdown as rookie. The former Marshall product had two receptions last season and was released by the Broncos before the start of this season.

Johnson has been on the practice squad all season.

Douglas has never played in an NFL game. At the University of Memphis, Douglas switched from linebacker to fullback midway through his junior season.

The Giants also made a move on their practice squad, releasing running back Cedric Humes and signing tight end Jason Randall.

They still have to win against the Redskins to make the playoffs, but this hurts their chances, hoepfully they can pick up and continue their playoff dreams without him...Thoughts?

I still have a bad feeling they'll win no matter who they put on the field. I'd only get nervous as a Giants fan(If I was, I'm not though, GO PACKERS!) if Manning gets hurt in practice. The Redskins look good one week and then look horrible the next, but I'm sure the Redskins will have the most fans ever this Saturday night.

One More Year!

This would suck if he couldn't play either, they have to win to get in the playoffs, if they don't they might as well kiss their playoff hopes goodbye, because 1 of the 4 other teams have to be guareenteed to win...

Nothing major. The Gaints season was over a while ago, this doesn't hurt them sense they have no change for playoffs.
