New York Giants' inactives: Justin Tuck, Kenny Phillips to play vs. Eagles

Defensive tackle Chris Canty (knee) and cornerback Jayron Hosley (quad) are among the inactive players today for the New York Giants as they face the Philadelphia Eagles.

That means that safety Kenny Phillips, wide receiver Hakeem Nicks, running back Ahmad Bradshaw, defensive end Justin Tuck and cornerback Prince Amukamara -- all battling injuries of varying types and degrees -- will suit up today. Tuck (shoulder) and Phillips (knee) did not play last week against the Baltimore Ravens. Amukamara played only four snaps last week and may only be dressed for an emergency.

The complete list of inactives for today is below:

Ramses Barden, Jayron Hosley, Tyler Sash, Ryan Torain, Adewale Ojomo, Adrien Robinson, Chris Canty.

The interesting name on the list is Barden. The fourth-year wide receiver has been inactive two weeks in a row now, with second-year man Jerrel Jernigan getting the nod. You have to wonder if we have seen the last of Barden in a Giants' uniform.
