Shockey Off Crutches
NY Daily News:
Rosenhaus did say that both Shockey (broken leg) and Burress (sprained ankle, knee) are “doing great. Plax is feeling great. Jeremy had surgery. He’s out of the boot. He’s walking. He’s been cleared by Doctor (Robert) Anderson. He’ll be ready to go for the offseason program.”
The offseason program, by the way, begins on March 31. Shockey may be ready by then, but he’s not expected to attend.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Apparently all of the Giants want new contracts now that they have won the Super Bowl. I mentioned earlier that Plaxico Burress had been seeking more money well now Osi Umenyiora seems to want an extension on his $40 million dollar contract through 2012. The Giants are also going to cut R.W. McQuarters and William Joseph. Lastly the Giants are still showing interest in Seattle's Marcus Trufant and Oakland's Nnamdi Asomugha. If they were to get either they would lose this year and next years pick.
