Giants WR Domenik Hixon and DE Justin Tuck will undergo tests on Monday, a day after the team’s 33-31 win over the Cowboys according to coach Tom Coughlin. Hixon sprained his knee in the first quarter and did not return. Tuck injured his shoulder in the second quarter after being tripped by Cowboys tackle Flozell Adams and did not return.
“They are going through all of the tests today and we will have to wait and see what the tests say to see where these guys are,” Coughlin said. ”I think a big factor will be Wednesday. When we do get the information, how do they feel on Wednesday?”
NFL.com senior writer Steve Wyche said Tuck was upset with Adams after the game. Tuck watched the second half from the sidelines with his arm in a sling.
Coughlin said that the diagnosis for last night’s inactive players — DE Chris Canty (calf), CB Aaaron Ross (hamstring) and CB Kevin Dockery (hamstring) – has not changed since last week.
