Eli Manning Suffering from Stress Reaction in His Foot: According to ESPN, QB Eli Manning is suffering from a stress reaction his right foot. A stress reaction can be a precursor to a stress fracture. The injury apparently occurred due to Eli compensating for his plantar fasciitis injury in the same foot.
According to ESPN, the Giants are “aggressively” treating the stress reaction by trying too keep Eli off his feet as much as possible, having him wear special shoes, and using a bone stimulator.
If the injury worsens into a stress fracture, Eli’s season may be over.
