Giants Send Phillips to I.R.



According to Adam Schefter of ESPN on NFL Live just moments ago, the New York Giants have sent Kenny Phillips to IR today with a knee injury.

To take his place, the Giants have signed former Green Bay Packer Aaron Rouse.

This is an enormous blow to the Giants, who were relying on Kenny Phillips to be a playmaker in their secondary. Now there's a soft spot in the secondary that teams will attempt to exploit, and by all accounts will do just that.

The Giants win games on defense, so this could be a blow to the entire team, not just the defense.
