Well, the news we feared was coming has arrived. Kenny Phillips is going to the injured reserve for an injured knee. The Giants were awarded S Aaron Rouse from the Packers. Here is a scouting report on Rouse. This is a big loss for the Giants. A lot of people, myself included, were expecting big things from Phillips. He’s a rangy safety, with a lot of power. He will be missed. In his place, we can expect CC Brown to start. Brown, who is a big hitter, but lacks range in coverage, will be an adequate replacement, coupled with Rouse. This is a big loss for the Giants, but it’s not one they can’t overcome. They’ll have to rely more on the corners–who have been already outstanding–and hope that Brown or Rouse steps up.
