"We're trying to figure out how we can eliminate this problem before the season rolls around and the games actually count and it's for real," Richburg said.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The New York Giants might have their offensive line ready to play in the annual preseason game against the Jets.

"We need to come out and play well as a team,Cheap NFL Jerseys Supply," Schwartz said. "That includes execution, scoring points. Being the third game, we game-planned all week. We need to tie everything together and get ourselves going, get some momentum going."
Coach Tom Coughlin on Thursday said that starting right tackle Marshall Newhouse was not injured when a defender stepped on his left ankle in practice on Wednesday and that center Weston Richburg's left knee is improving after missing a couple of days with tendinitis.
