(AP) — New York Giants offensive tackle Will Beatty doesn't want to be too specific about the right leg that he broke in the final game of last season.While doctors have cleared him to take part in training camp and now participate in preseason games,Chicago Bears jerseys, the 29-year-old doesn't want his leg to be the focus of the season.Medically, his left leg is still a little stronger than his surgically repaired right one. Sure, the right one is OK, but there are differences.When he wakes up in the morning, the right leg needs a little extra time to loosen up and he quips his dunking ability isn't what it used to be. It doesn't surprise Beatty, and maybe that will change with time.For now,Notre Dame Fighting Irish jerseys, Beatty isn't complaining. He's playing football again after breaking his tibia — the shinbone — and he will play in a game for the first time since being hurt in late December when the Giants travel to Indianapolis to take on the Colts in a preseason... less

"We'll get it fixed by the time Houston comes in."Griffin went 5 for 7 for 20 yards in the first half and was sacked three times. He returned in the third quarter and threw just one pass, an interception by rookie C.J.
