August 10, 2014 New York Giants Injury Report: Fullback John Conner suffered a concussion on the final play of Saturday’s Giants-Steelers preseason game.
“They are calling (it a concussion),” said Head Coach Tom Coughlin. “He is going through the protocol. I think anytime you are dinged and you come to the sideline that is the way it is going to be treated today. His eyes were bright and he was smiling when I left the locker room so I was a little bit surprised. It will be precaution and safety first so he will go through the protocol and who knows if he really is feeling as well as I thought he looked last night. Maybe that can all be accomplished in time for us to see where he will be at this week in terms of practice and play. I don’t know if anything is being ruled out just yet (in terms of the next preseason game on Saturday).”
Regarding wide receiver Odell Beckham, who has missed almost all of training camp with a hamstring injury, Coughlin said, “He is going to practice tomorrow on an individual basis, and then they are going to assess where he is. If he can do a little more, then maybe he will do a little bit more, but if he can’t then we will keep it strictly with individual (drills).”
