Defensive end Damontre Moore, benched last week after a Week 6 unnecessary roughness penalty against the Philadelphia Eagles, will play for the New York Giants today against the New Orleans Saints. Moore replaces rookie Owamagbe Odighizuwa, sidelined with a hamstring injury.
A stunning inactive for the Giants is middle linebacker Jon Beason, who injured an ankle last week against the Dallas Cowboys. Beason had been listed as questionable. Beason being inactive also explains why the Giants added middle linebacker James Morris to the 53-man roster on Saturday.
