December 14, 2009 New York Giants Injury Report: RT Kareem McKenzie sprained the MCL in his knee and he may miss the next two games. “He does have an MCL,” said Head Coach Tom Coughlin. “They are saying a couple weeks. We will have to wait and see. He has been a characteristically fast healer but I don’t know how that will be…I am hoping that he comes back faster.”
CB Corey Webster also sprained his knee. “He injured a knee and came out of the game,” said Coughlin. “His is more like a day-to-day thing.”
