EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Dalvin Tomlinson probably won’t have to wait long to make his first start for the Giants.
With fellow defensive tackle Jay Bromley suddenly nursing an injured left knee, the second-round draft pick out of Alabama likely will line up beside Damon Harrison in the season opener in Dallas on Sept. 9.
Tomlinson and Bromley were fighting for the starting spot when Bromley was hurt in Saturday night’s preseason win over the Jets.
Bromley did not practice Monday. He wore a knee brace while talking to reporters after the workout.
