August 12, 2014 New York Giants Injury Report: Not practicing on Tuesday were RB Peyton Hillis (ankle/foot), FB John Conner (concussion), WR Jerrel Jernigan (knee), WR Trindon Holliday (hamstring), TE Xavier Grimble (hamstring), DT Mike Patterson (shoulder), and LB Jon Beason (PUP – foot).

“(Hillis is) coming, but it’s slow,” said Head Coach Tom Coughlin. “(Conner) looks like he’s going to practice later in the week.”

Coughlin said Holliday was not likely to return to practice this week.

WR Odell Beckham (hamstring) participated in individual and some team drills.

“(Beckham is) building up,” said Coughlin after practice. “He had a few snaps today. Not many but a few.”

“It feels good,” said Beckham before practice. “It feels good to be able to move around. Like I said, its not 100%, it’s not full strength. I couldn’t even give you a percentage of how I was running yesterday but slowly but surely, it will get back to where it needs to be.”

Notes and Quotes: Former Giants WR Plaxico Burress watched practice on Tuesday.

Offensive Coordinator Ben McAdoo on WR Corey Washington: “Corey is a big man that can run and go get the football. That’s a good place to start. He is a young guy who has a lot to learn but he has done some special things over the last week. It will be exciting to see him grow.”

McAdoo on the tight ends: “I think Larry (Donnell) has had a nice camp so far. I think Daniel (Fells) had a good camp until he got nicked up. The other guys are making progress…I think Larry is conscientious guy. He is a big body; he’s capable of blocking sometimes better than he does on tape. He can go down the middle of the field and make a play on the ball. That needs to show up all the time. It is important to take care of your teammates on the field and that seems like it is pretty important to him.”

Head Coach Tom Coughlin on the punt return game: “(Odell) Beckham will be a big part of it once he gets back. We have a lot of people trying it. I think that once we get Beckham back out there, I think it’ll crystallize for us.”
