Giants | Pierce out indefinitely Fri Nov 20, 10:11 PM
The New York Giants announced LB Antonio Pierce (neck) as diagnosed with a bulging disc in his neck Friday, Nov. 20, and he will be sidelined indefinitely, according to the team's medical staff. Pierce originally suffered a burner Oct. 25 and experienced very little discomfort until practicing this week. Pierce said, "I had no idea that what happened a few weeks ago could keep me off the field. I didn't think it was that serious. I'm going to do everything the doctors tell me to do so I can get back out on the field as soon as possible."

Giants | Believe Ware can handle third down role Fri Nov 20, 02:27 PM
Paul Schwartz, of the New York Post, reports New York Giants offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride said the team believes RB Danny Ware is capable of handling the duties of a third-down back. 'We think he is [ready],' Gilbride said. 'We're certainly going to give him a chance to prove that he's not. It was something we had aspired to do at the beginning of the year. We thought it would make us a more complete team.' The Giants do not plan on featuring Ware in any games but just as a complement to RBs Brandon Jacobs and Ahmad Bradshaw.

| Our view: The team has talked about getting Danny Ware involved as the third-down running back, and that would reduce the number of touches for Bradshaw. |

Giants | Looking to get Ware more involved Thu Nov 12, 01:06 PM
Mike Garafolo, of The Star-Ledger, reports the New York Giants coaches would like to have RB Danny Ware to be the third-down back for the rest of the season because they think he can be a key to their season.
| Our view: We like Danny Ware's ability as both a runner and a receiver. The former Georgia Bulldog runs with good pad level, balance, and footwork. Because of his size and low center of gravity he is tough to bring down, and can run through arm tackles after hauling in a pass. |

| Our view: Brown has been a strong IDP play in recent weeks, but he can be dropped. Meanwhile, Rouse is a terrific pickup if you are hurting at safety. |

| Our view: Jacobs is certainly due for a big game, and could have one of his best performances of the season against the woeful San Diego Chargers rushing defense. Add in the fact that Ahmad Bradshaw could be limited by his foot injury once again, and the Giants recipe for success may include a lot of Brandon Jacobs. |
