Rueben Randle’s knee tendinitis might keep him out of action for longer than the Giants had hoped.
The fourth-year receiver was held without a catch and barely played in Friday night’s preseason-opening loss to the Bengals in Cincinnati, after a week in which he was barely able to practice. And on Saturday, coach Tom Coughlin admitted that Randle had been “in pain.”
“He wanted to go, and he felt like he could go,” Coughlin said. “He thought he could play, he did not warm up well. We probably should have shut him down right away, but he had played a few snaps.
