A slightly separated shoulder will keep New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning on the sidelines for at least one month. Some people feared Eli had torn his labrum and would require season ending surgery. Giants fans were quick to exhale when an MRI showed no such damage.
In addition to Manning the injury bug also hit top defensive end Osi Umenyiora, and the Giants' new starting running back, Brandon Jacobs. Both players suffered knee injuries and are day to day.
Jared Lorenzen, aka Big Country (6'4" 285 lbs.), will start in place of Eli when the Giants host the Green Bay Packers. Fourth year starter Derrick Ward will start for Jacobs with Reuben Droughns getting more time as his backup.
