Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that doctors have told Giants RB David Wilsonย that he isย risk ofย doing even more damage to his neck if he continues playing football.
Despite the concerns, Wilson expects to continue his career and return tot he Giants next season.
Wilson wasย placed on the season-ending injured reserveย due to a herniated disc in his neck, but doctorsย believed Wilsonย has spinal stenosis, which could impact his long-term future in the league.
This will definitely be a topic discussed during the offseason as the Giants will need to ensure that they have better depth at the running back position heading into the 2014 season.
As things stand right now, New York will lean onย Peyton Hillisย andย Andre Brownย on Sunday, with Brandon Jacobs dealing with knee and back issues.
