EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -Eli Manning didn’t aggravate his heel injury in the New York Giants’ win over Oakland.
Manning said Monday that his right heel feels good and that he hopes to practice every day this week.
The Giants, whose 5-0 record is their best start since winning 10 in a row in 1990, will play Drew Brees and the Saints (4-0) in New Orleans this weekend in a battle of unbeaten teams.
It will be Manning’s first NFL game in his hometown of New Orleans. He was supposed to play there in 2005 but the game was moved to Giants Stadium after the city flooded in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
Manning threw two touchdowns and played less than a half in the Giants 44-6 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
