Kenny PhillipsWith all of the miscommunication issues since Kenny Phillips went down, it’s a good sign for the Giants they’re getting their starting safety back today.
Phillips, who missed Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys with a sprained knee suffered a week prior, returned to practice today. He was fully participating and that's a good sign for him to play against the Washington Redskins on Sunday.
Since Phillips went down against the Green Bay Packers, the Giants gave up two touchdowns on apparent miscommunications between Antrel Rolle and Corey Webster – one against Green Bay and another against Dallas on a 50-yard touchdown to Dez Bryant. It’s unclear if either would’ve occurred had Phillips been on the field to communicate the adjustment to Webster, who didn’t sink deep enough on the Packers’ Donald Driver and, according to Rolle, should’ve been deep on Bryant.
