Eli has some swelling

According to Ralph Vacchiano of the NY Daily News, Eli Manning had “some swelling and soreness” in his heel this morning when he arrived at the team facility. Eli injured himself when he dropped back to pass yesterday against the Chiefs. No one hit him, but something definitely happened.

He is not scheduled to have an MRI (odd) and the team is calling it a “bruised heel.”

If you watch what happened, it looks a lot like what happened to Vinny Testaverde when he was with the Jets (we are thinking 1999). That injury? An Achilles tendon. That’s bad news. That’s out-for-the-year bad. Keep an eye on this one, it could be trouble for the Giants if David Carr has to lead the team.
