Check out our player news page throughout the week for updates on all the bumps and bruises.
Eli Manning - Manning was pivoting to throw when his right foot landed awkwardly. Manning stayed in for one play, took a snap out of the shotgun and threw a flat-footed screen pass to Hakeem Nicks that went for a touchdown. Non-contact injuries like this are always concerning and Manning will have more tests Monday. No one is using the word Achilles yet, but you never know.
Matt Stafford - He briefly dislocated his knee in the fourth quarter. He’ll have more tests Monday to determine how much damage was done.
Devin Hester - He left with what was being called a shoulder injury, but late reports say it’s a neck injury that is not considered serious.
Marion Barber - There’s speculation Barber aggravated his quad after he played just seven snaps in the second half.
Johnny Knox - Suffered a minor shin injury but is expected to be OK.
Shonn Greene - Coach Rex Ryan said the rookie had a little ankle tweak after getting the first carries of his career.
Zach Miller - Suffered a concussion. The severity is unknown right now.
Correll Buckhalter - Sprained his left ankle in the third quarter and did not return. He left the stadium on crutches.
