No Question: Injured Threesome Hope To Play

No Question: Injured Threesome Hope To Play
December 20
New York Post
"The urgency of tomorrow night's game against the Panthers is apparent judging from the all-aboard mentality the Giants are taking.

Running back Brandon Jacobs (knee), defensive tackle Fred Robbins (shoulder) and wide receiver Domenik Hixon (ankle, foot) are all listed as questionable. More significantly, however, all made it through practice this week.

Coach Tom Coughlin said Jacobs will play "barring something that would be a setback" and that Robbins "has gotten better towards the end of the week."

Hixon is "a little bit sore" and, like Robbins, will be a game-time decision. It would not be surprising if all three players were in uniform and on the field.

Robbins, who did not play last week battling through a shoulder issue, lost strength in his left shoulder, but he said it is coming back. He declared himself "good to go." It's imperative to get Robbins back and plugging the middle against such a formidable rushing team.

LT Kareem McKenzie, who was forced out last week in Dallas with back spasms, is probable. The only player listed as out is LB Gerris Wilkinson (knee). . . . Carolina's excellent run-stopper, 345-pound DT Maake Kemoeatu, didn't practice much this week with an ankle injury. He's listed as questionable. Panthers starting RG Keydrick Vincent (groin) is doubtful."
