    Giants DB Terrell Thomas Out For The Season With A Torn ACL

    Giants cornerback Terrell Thomas has suffered a torn right ACL, ESPN's Suzy Kolber reports. A 2008 second-round pick out of USC, Thomas has emerged as arguably the team's top cornerback in the last two seasons, starting 31 of 32 games and totaling 186 tackles, two quarterback sacks and 10 interceptions with 34 passes defensed. The 26-year-old was entering the final year of his contract. Thomas was scheduled to start opposite veteran Corey Webster, with 2011 first-round pick Prince Amukamara expected to work as the No. 3 cornerback this season. Amukamara is out after breaking the fifth metatarsal in his left foot during one of his first practices during training camp.

  2. Great.....first Bruce Johnson.....then Prince and now Thomas.

    T2 got leg whipped by JPP.......
     
  3. Aaron Ross will now start and Brian Witherspoon will play Nickle........

    Prince should return in mid-September.......Thomas was a beast this summer. This is devastating.
     
  4. Now Witherspoon is carted off......

    Give me Asante........lol

    Giants are becoming a juicy fantasy matchup for passing games. Sorry about Thomas bro. He was a beast.

    Steve12 The night is dark and full of terrors

    god**mn. Maybe the Giants should forfeit their last preseason games. If they don't they might not have enough guys to suit up Week 1.
     
  7. Thomas was entering his final year of his rookie deal.......the dude plays like a safety at the CB position.
     
  8. Tye Hill, Randall Gay and Kelvin Hayden are some names out there free agency.........pickings are slim.
     
  9. This feels like Jason Sehorn all over again.........

    I'm writing the Giants off if there's another 1 or 2 key injuries.

    Bingo. Still say that it isn't worth getting rid of Asante unless we got a top 5 RT or some phenomenal linebacker.

    And this is a crapty deal, Gints fans. Screwin' worry before every damn preseason game than something like that would happen to the Eagles.
