September 24, 2010 New York Giants Injury Report

September 24, 2010 New York Giants Injury Report – Tuck Questionable: Not practicing yesterday were DE Justin Tuck (shoulder), OC Shaun O’Hara (ankle/Achilles), LB Phillip Dillard (hamstring), OT Will Beatty (foot), and S Michael Johnson (back).

The injury-prone Tuck has been officially listed as “questionable” for the game against the Titans on Sunday. Tuck says he will “absolutely” play however.

Tuck was asked if the injury was related to the torn labrum from last season. “A little bit,” responded Tuck. “Same shoulder.” (Incidentally, Head Coach Tom Coughlin said it was not related to the previous injury).

Tuck was then asked if the injury might linger all season. “Maybe,” said Tuck. “I think that I have to do a great job of communicating when I feel something and not be a hero every day.”

Does Tuck think the shoulder will affect his play against the Titans? “”I’ll be able to answer that question after the game,” said Tuck. “I don’t know.”

Meanwhile, O’Hara did not practice all week and is “doubtful” for the game. Adam Koets will likely start at center.

Dilliard, Beatty, and Johnson will not play.

LB Chase Blackburn (knee) practiced on a limited basis and is “questionable” for the game against the Titans.

TE Kevin Boss (concussion), WR Mario Manningham (illness), and CB Aaron Ross (foot) practiced fully and are “probable” for the game.
