Brenda Jacobs and Derrick Ward both out

[jgcrawfish 232]

In a development that comes as no surprise whatsoever, ESPN's Sal Paolantonio just reported the Giants have confirmed what they announced Friday: Brandon Jacobs has been ruled out for today's game against the Vikings.

 

The team also confirmed that Derrick Ward, listed as doubtful with groin and ankle issues, has also been officially ruled out this morning.

 

Reuben Droughns will start and almost certainly handle the bulk of the carres. Ahmad Bradshaw and newly-signed Patrick Pass could also contribute.
