September 20-- New Guard, Thomas still on roster
The signed back-up guard Rick DeMulling, he's a six year vet who played four seasons with Detroit and 2 years with Indianapolis..
The team released WR Shaun Bodiford to make room on the roster..
So Randy Thomas is for now being given a chance to heal with the hopes of returning for the final 3-4 games of the season.. The team is going to hold onto that roster spot as long as possible, but if another rash of injuries occur, they said they will rethink it..
Gregg Williams said he "is glad Tiki Barber is gone," saying the Giants are perfroming very well on offense but "it's not the same." Williams lauded the Giants offense which has only punted five times in two games and have put up big passing yard numbers to whcih the Williams explained "was because they have been playing catch up each week."
Williams praised the play of Rocky McIntosh and Laron landry but cautioned, "they make plays in every game that make me happy and make me cry all at the same time.."
Clinton Portis reacted to Mike Sellars public declarations of wanting the ball more by saying that "all the running backs come out of Mike's helmet to start the game." Portis was kidding abouty the metaphorical and physical size of Sellars head but did say he'd like to see those six carries Sellars got be distributed between himself and Ladell Betts..
Injuries: S Vernon Fox (groin) took part in limited parts of practice.. CB Fred Smoot (hamstring), limited in practice, DE Phillip Daniels (foot) was back taking all the work in practice..
NYG injuries: WR Plaxico Burress missed his second straight day of practice (ankle), RB Brandon Jacobs (knee) and Wr Steve Smith (scapula) have both been ruled out of the game Sunday.. QB Jared Lorenzen (ankle) took only limited work.. QB Eli Manning is not listed on the NYG injury report..
LB Marcus Washington told me he would like the rest of the country to continue to ignore the Redskins saying he hopes people weren't paying attention to their Monday Night win over Philly.. "I want us to be like crocodiles, we sit back, wait and bask and then we eat when we eat."
Washington said Rocky McIntosh had nothing to prove to him after what he saw in a late season game a year ago.. Washington said McIntosh was unaware he was supposed to go into the Rams game in a late 3rd and short situation, went in without his helmet strapped, didn't know the defensive call yet shot through a hole and made a key stop.. "That's all I needed to see."
CB Carlos Rogers says the Philly game may have been one of the best of his 2 plus season Redskin career.. He marked Kevin Curtis who ended up with 4 catches for 28 yards.. Rogers said he doesn't know week to week if teams will attack him or go after Shawn Springs or Fred Smoot.. Rogers said he expects to see a lot of Burress as he typically "is on my side of the field."
OK men..
