Don’t Expect Strahan To Return
While coach Tom Coughlin didn’t rule out Michael Strahan coming out of retirement, multiple sources close to the ex-Giant have told Ralph Vacchiano at the Daily News that Strahan said he is “doubtful” he would consider a return.
It would cost the Giants at least $8 million that he was seeking before he retired back in June, which the Giants were unwilling to pay at the time.
Coughlin was not yet ready today to reveal his plans for moving on without Strahan.
Tom Rock at Newsday thinks theres a 50/50 chance Umenyiora could be back in a month. Newsday plans to run a story tomorrow in which a leading orthopedic surgeon says that if it is just a torn meniscus and there is no other unrevealed ligament damage, there is a better than 50 percent chance that Umenyiora would be ready to play inside a month.
