Preliminary Injuries

Here's the preliminary injury report. We'll see later if any of these guys practice.

LB Michael Boley (hip)
CB Kevin Dockery (hamstring)
T Adam Koets (ankle)
WR Hakeem Nicks (foot)
CB Aaron Ross (hamstring)
LB Clint Sintim (groin)
RB Danny Ware (elbow)

Nicks, Ross, and Ware are out for sure, but Dockery said Monday that he hoped to practice today. Boley was also hopeful, but it'll be interesting to see whether the medical staff clears him.

Also, the Giants added Jacob Bender to the practice squad. Bender, a 6-6, 316-pound offensive lineman, was last with the 49ers, who signed him last year off the Patriots practice squad. He was inactive for four games in San Fran, and was active but did not play in the 49ers' finale. Bender is a former sixth-round pick of the Jets in 2007, where he played two games on special teams that year before he was waived last Aug. 31.
