Good morning, New York Giants fans! Here is your Tuesday morning notebook.

Nicks 'can't wait' for game action

Head coach Tom Coughlin said Monday that wide receiver Hakeem Nicks will likely play a few snaps Wednesday against the New England Patriots. That was music to Nicks' ears.

"I’m supposed to be able to take some live snaps this week. That’s what Coach told me yesterday when I asked him. Doctor said the same thing so that’s what we look forward to doing," Nicks said. "efinitely can’t wait, going against some live action knowing that somebody is going to be hitting me after I catch the ball now. It will get my feet wet a little bit for this opening game. That’s what I look forward to, getting some live snaps."

Nicks, of course, broke his foot during offseason OTAs.
