Giants coach Pat Shurmur scrapes face after being tripped by dog

It’s not just the players who are getting nicked up during training camp.

Giants head coach Pat Shurmur was sporting a big scrape on the left side of his face Monday. He was playfully asked by a reporter who hit him.

“Oh, nobody,” he said with a smile. “I was putting the dog out, and she’s a big girl so she kind of ran between my legs and I just tripped. That was it.”

Shurmur provided the injury update on himself after revealing the Giants avoided disaster with critical rookie cornerback DeAndre Baker, who’s considered day-to-day with a sprained knee.
