Eli Manning shrugs off injury questions, says “I feel great”

After back-to-back games in which he struggled, completing only 43-of-80 passes (53.8 percent) New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning Tuesday said that health has not been a factor.

“I feel good. I feel good physically,” he said.

Manning said the big hit he took from Chris Baker of the Washington Redskins Week 3 had no lingering effect.

“No. I feel great,” he said.

“I didn’t play as well as I needed to last week. I missed some throws. So I need to play better, I have to make some more throws, better decisions, can’t turn the ball over, but we will improve.
