The New York Giants are on a four-game losing streak, and now they’ve been dealt another blow.
Giants middle linebacker Antonio Pierce was diagnosed with a bulging disc in his neck this afternoon and is out indefinitely, the team announced today.
“I’m shocked with what I heard from the doctors this afternoon,” Pierce said in a statement, via Pat Hanlon on Twitter. "[I] had no idea what happened a few weeks ago could keep me off the field.”
Pierce has started all nine games for the Giants this year.
