Giants QB Eli Manning was interviewed on the Boomer Esiason Show this week. Norman asked Eli about the loss of Plax, here is what he said.
“I feel confident. They didn’t need to go and get a big wide receiver. When Plaxico was injured, the guys stepped up and put up big points. It’s not like we need to have him. We put up big points. It’s not like we weren’t playing well because of Plaxico. We just weren’t playing very good football. Steve Smith is coming around in his third year & he’s going to be a guy who gets more playing time. Young guys are getting more experience.
“Last year was very beneficial for them because they got to play so much. Hixon had a tremendous season. Manningham; he has been working hard and wanting to get back in the action and figure out what his role is. These guys are second round draft picks. I feel great about the guys we have. They are hard workers, they practice well, and they’re competitive.”
