Giants' Pugh Headed To Injured Reserve
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (CBSNewYork) -- The Giants are placing Justin Pugh on injured reserve, ending the offensive lineman's season with three games left to play.
Pugh has missed the past four games with a back injury, which he aggravated during practice last week.
The five-year veteran received a second opinion Wednesday. He was told surgery was not needed but that he will need rest and rehab.
