Giants head coach Tom Coughlin told the truth. He said running back Ahmad Bradshaw missed Thursday's practice to get some rest for his feet. With a setback out of the question, Bradshaw was back on the field Friday and is listed as probable for Saturday's crucial showdown against the New York Jets. However, wide receiver Mario Manningham is doubtful to play. He didn't practice all week after his troublesome knee swelled up on him following last week's loss to Washington.

Fantasy Analysis:

If you need Bradshaw, I think he's OK as a flex or very low-end RB2. With Manningham likely out, Ramses Barden will probably line up outside across the field from Hakeem Nicks. I think Victor Cruz will continue to work largely out of the slot and thus go against safeties, not Darrelle Revis or Antonio Cromartie. Cruz is a solid WR2 this week.
