The 2011 NFL season hasn't begun, yet already the Giants have the unwanted honor of being a league leader in a statistical column in which no team ever wants to have high numbers: season-ending injuries.The Giants entered Monday's game with the Jets with nine players that are either headed to injured reserve or had been officially designated as such.
New York has lost starter Terrell Thomas (knee), Bruce Johnson (Achilles), Brian Witherspoon (knee), and Woodny Turrene (calf).First-round draft pick Prince Amukamara, lost to the team until at least early October as he recovers from surgery to repair the fifth metatarsal in his foot, could eventually boost the secondary.
