BBI Giants-Buccaneers Game Preview: Our preview of the upcoming Giants-Buccaneers game is now available in the Game Previews and Reviews section of the website.
Injury Update: Not practicing again were OC Shaun O’Hara (knee) and CB Sam Madison (abdomen). Both are officially listed as "doubtful" for the game against the Buccaneers on Sunday.
LB Kawika Mitchell (knee), CB Kevin Dockery (hip flexor), and WR Plaxico Burress (ankle) practiced on a limited basis. Mitchell and Dockery are listed as "questionable" and Burress "probable" for the game.
"Mitchell got limited work (on Friday) and actually was working in a brace and he felt pretty good," said Head Coach Tom Coughlin.
"Maybe (on Saturday), I’ll wake up and my mind will be made up and I’ll say, ‘OK, let’s go,’ " Mitchell said. "If it doesn’t feel as good, we’ll see how it feels Sunday. Right now, it’s down to how I feel and how comfortable I feel. I don’t want to go out there and hurt my team."
"Dockery did some individual, just a little bit, but felt pretty good," said Coughlin.
DE Tollefson (concussion) practiced fully but is listed as "questionable".
HB Ahmad Bradshaw (leg), TE Michael Matthews (illness), and WR Sinorice Moss (back) are "probable" for the game against the Buccaneers.
