Giants Injury Update

From The Blue Screen:

Both WR Domenik Hixon (knee) and CB Kevin Dockery (hamstring) made the trip to Tampa, but are inactive. Six other players had previously been declared out: DT Chris Canty (calf), CB Aaron Ross (hamstring), LB Clint Sintim (groin), WR Hakeem Nicks (foot), RB Danny Ware (elbow) and Adam Koets (ankle). None of them made the trip.

Because a team can only have 8 players inactive, the Giants dressed Justin Tuck although he is not expected to play. This means the Giants are missing starters Dockery, Tuck, Ross, Phillips, and Canty from their defense. That "depth" talked about so much in the preseason is being tested today once again.

Update 2:01: Ok...so Justin Tuck is playing. Didn't think that would happen but it shows Tuck's toughness. This defense is playing well so far, causing nightmares for Byron Leftwich
