| Manning Won't Play If He Can't Help Manning, who has started the last 82 games, was held out of practice Wednesday so he can get treatment on his plantar fascia, a band of connective tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot and inserts into the heel.
“If I feel like I can go out and play at a high level and help the team and do everything I can do, and they don’t have to limit the game plan or say you can’t do this or that, I’ll go out there and play,” Manning said. “I’m not going to do anything that will put myself in harm for making this worse down the road.”
Manning admitted his heel bothered him occasionally the last few weeks. However, he never had pain like he felt in the fourth quarter Sunday when he set up to throw against Kansas City and literally had to hop because it so was intense.
Honestly I'm not too worried. David Carr is one of the better backup QBs in the league and he should be able to beat the Raiders with the Giants. Especially with the running game he will have helping him.
