Coughlin: 'No one seems overly concered' about Eli Manning

Coughlin was asked Monday about the health of quarterback Eli Manning, who reportedly spent more time than usual with the team's training staff after Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. Coughlin said Manning was just "sore."

"There really hasn't been any report to me on anything (an injury) like that," Coughlin said. "It is normally just maintenance for him. I am not speaking out of turn, I don't know a lot about anything else. No one seems to be overly concerned."
