Kenny Phillips relieved knee injury is a sprain, not a tear

Giants safety Kenny Phillips was relieved when he found out his knee injury wasn’t a tear. Instead, his left knee has a sprained MCL, a different injury than what forced him to undergo microfracture surgery on the same knee in 2008.

“When it first happens, you always think the worst,” Phillips said. “ I’m good. I feel much better.”

Phillips, who missed today’s practice, said he’s day-to-day and his knee isn’t sore or stiff.

“I expect to play,” Phillips said of suiting up on Sunday. “I haven’t been told otherwise.”
