pick Ereck Flowers and signed tackle Brian Mihalik off their practice squad to replace him.The team announced the moves Tuesday http://www.giantsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-will-hernandez-jersey , a day after coach Pat Shurmur said Flowers would either be traded or waived within 24 hours.Flowers was the ninth pick overall in the 2015 draft. He never lived up to expectations. The Miami product was moved from left to right tackle this season after free agent Nate Solder was signed. He ended up losing that job to Chad Wheeler after two games.The Giants, who face the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday night, also signed kicker Marshall Koehn to their practice squad. Placekicker Aldrick Rosas has a sore quad and his status for Thursday is uncertain.Shurmur said Tuesday that Rosas' injury is improving.Mihalik played in 15 games for the Detroit Lions in 2017, starting twice. He has been on the Giants practice squad since Sept. 13.Koehn was with the Giants from Jan. 1 until his release on Sept. 1. He has played in one NFL game, for Cincinnati at Jacksonville on Nov. 5. He made his only extra point attempt http://www.giantsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-janoris-jenkins-jersey , and had one touchback on two kickoffs.Derrius Guice’s injury reminds us of the best part of the Giants’ loss New York Giants football is finally back, and after one preseason game fans are already talking each other off of the ledge. Make no mistake, the Giants have issues like concerns over the passing game — both on offensive and defense — or Davis Webb’s “amped up” erratic play. However, we can’t allow ourselves to overlook the single biggest win to come out of the Giants’ 20-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns, the for "Kudos" that Ed forgot in his post game "Kudos and Wet Willie's":They’re still healthy. Derrius GuiceGeoff Burke-USA TODAY SportsGiants fans got a stark reminder of that fact when Washington Redskins rookie running back Derrius Guice was diagnosed with a torn ACL on Friday. Guice suffered the injury when he was tackled awkwardly finishing a nice run against the New England Patriots. The Giants aren't completely healthy http://www.giantsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-connor-barwin-jersey , they lost rookie cornerback Sam Beal to a shoulder injury almost as soon as he became a Giant, and have suffered a spate of hamstring injuries in the secondary. Hamstrings are frustrating injuries to have -- you can't do much until they're healthy, and even if you feel recovered, you might not yet be healthy. But compared to Guice and twelve (as of this writing) other season ending knee injuries, Thompson's hamstring is far from a worst case scenario. The first week of preseason football brought the injury bug to several teams around the league. Tom Brady is dealing with back soreness while the Indianapolis Colts lost exciting rookie receiver Deon Cain for the season. Injury provides opportunities for other players http://www.giantsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-b.j.-goodson-jersey , and perhaps Guice's injury could be an opportunity for former Giants running back Orleans Darkwa. But for the Giants, amd Giants fans, Guice's injury should serve as a reminder that while they have issues, they also have largely healthy players (and players who will return from injury) to coach up on those issues. |
