A day after the loss to the Redskins at home, the Giants got some good news on the health front, as running back Shane Vereen will not need surgery – and he could return to the team after being placed on IR.
Giants eliminated “season-ending” surgery on RB Shane Vereen. Best-case scenario has him eligible to return from IR after eight weeks.

The Giants themselves earlier in the day stated that Vereen would be done for the season after coach Bob McAdoo said the running back would need triceps surgery.
Now it looks like they even jumped the gun on a possible surgery.
Ryan Williams, the agent for Vereen, blasted the team after they announced via twitter the back would miss the season.

With Vereen missing time, look for the G-Men to turn to Orleans Darkwa and Bobby Rainey to take his role on the roster.
