Injury a Giant issue for Sinorice Moss

Eli Manning may have traded in his baseball cap for a football helmet, set to play tomorrow against Baltimore, but the Giants have a number of other injured players set to miss the third preseason game.

With that serving as dress rehearsal for the opener, and cuts coming by Tuesday, it's an important game.

While center Shaun O'Hara and cornerback Aaron Ross are safe in their jobs, the same may not be true for receiver Sinorice Moss. He had been practicing up until yesterday, when he was sidelined by what the team called a groin injury, pending tests.

"It's frustrating [to be hurt], as its always been. For myself personally I can't get too down on myself, because things happen," said Moss. "I honestly don't know what it is, but we'll find out. Groin, abdominal, I don't know. I have no idea."

Moss hadn't ruled out shutting it down for the rest of preseason, missing next Thursday's game vs. New England as well. When asked if he thought this could hurt his odds of making the roster, he looked stunned and said: "No. Why would it jeopardize my chances for that? No, that's not my opinion at all."

Moss will undergo a second opinion on his groin injury tomorrow after continued soreness has sidelined the four-year veteran. Coach Tom Coughlin did not know whether the injury will last long-term, but the setback is a troubling sign for Moss.
