| Kansas City, MO (MySportsbook) - New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning injured his heel during Sunday's 27-16 win over Kansas City. While dropping back for a pass in the fourth quarter, Manning seemed to hurt his foot area and was in clear pain. He managed to get the pass off to Hakeem Nicks, who took it 54 yards for a touchdown. "Anytime you feel like you have a little pull or strain, especially down there, you get nervous," said Manning. "You don't know what it is. You kind of feel like it's an Achilles |

That isn't the best of news for the winless Kansas City Chiefs, who are looking to avoid going 0-4 for the first time in 29 years. Undefeated New York will try to keep the Todd Haley/Matt Cassel era in Kansas City winless for another week when the teams clash this Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium.
