Veteran running back Jonathan Stewart has been placed on injured reserve by the New York Giants due to a foot injury. Stewart carried the ball only six times for 17 yards in the first three games.With Stewart sidelined Corey Ballentine Buffalo Bills Jersey , the Giants signed wide receiver Jawill Davis off their practice squad. The 6-foot, 197-pound Daviscaught three passes for 23 yards in the preseason, was released on Sept. 1 and signed to the practice squad the following day.Stewart signed a two-year Color Rush Corey Ballentine Jersey , $6.8 million contract with the Giants in the offseason. He carries a $3.925 million cap hit this season.In April GM Dave Gettleman defended the signing of the 31-year-old 11-year veteran by saying “Jonathan Stewart is in his 10th year and he has not lost anything.”Stewart’s play did not back up Gettleman’s belief. Even before the announcement that Stewart was being placed on IR, running backs coach Craig Johnson had admitted that second-year man Wayne Gallman had surpassed Stewart on the depth chart.“Gallman has been a little more productive so he’s usually going to get the first call,” Johnson said. There is a feeling for many outside the Giants organization that the team needs to move on from quarterback Eli Manning in order to find the consistent success that has eluded them since they beat the Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI in February 2012.While there’s an acknowledgement that Manning won’t be able to play forever Youth Corey Ballentine Jersey , Giants co-owner John Mara, General Manager Dave Gettleman and head coach Pat Shurmur have all been adamant that Manning is not holding the Giants back right now. You can add running back Saquon Barkley to that list.Barkley was asked by Taylor Rooks of if he is bothered by criticism of Manning.“Yeah, it bothers me. I’m not going to lie because it’s not his fault Womens Corey Ballentine Jersey ,” Barkley said. “He’s not the reason why. We love to put the blame on one person, but it takes 11 men, a team and an organization all together to win.”Anyone who has watched the Giants stumble to eight wins over the last two seasons will tell you that there’s been plenty wrong with the team. Needing help elsewhere and needing better quarterback play aren’t mutually exclusive White Lawrence Taylor Jerseys , however, and the Giants will likely have to address all of it if they are going to find their way to a better place in the standings.
