Giants re-signed FB Henry Hynoski to a one-year, $1 million contract. | ||||||
Hynoski drew some interest from the Lions, but in the end he comes back to the Giants to battle John Conner for the lead-blocker job in camp. It's figures to come down to the wire. Hynoski was a top-tier fullback in 2012 before missing all of 2013 with a shoulder injury. Conner, of course, is The Terminator. | ||||||

The Giants will not tender FB Henry Hynoski as a restricted free agent. | ||||||
By not tendering Hynoski, the Giants allow him to become an unrestricted free agent. At that point, the Giants will try to re-sign him at less than the restricted tender would have been. The Hynocerous was PFF's No. 5 fullback in terms of blocking last season. | ||||||

According to the Newark Star-Ledger, the "fear" is that Giants FB Henry Hynoski's fractured shoulder is a season-ending injury. | ||||||
Beat writer Conor Orr believes Hynoski could soon be headed to injured reserve, but there's been no word from the Giants. The loss of their lead blocker isn't going to help the Giants' thus far anemic rushing attack, but backup Bear Pascoe isn't a massive downgrade. | ||||||

"No full weight-bearing yet, but I'm getting to that soon and I'm excited to make more advances in my rehab," Hynoski said Tuesday. Despite Hynoski's positive outlook, the Giants' workout of free agent FB Lawrence Vickers suggests they don't expect Hynoski to be ready. Bear Pascoe and Ryan D'Imperio are paving the way in Hynoski's absence. | ||||||

| Thu Jul 11 2013 | 11:20 | Report: Hynoski could be ready for Week 1 | ||||
The Newark Star-Ledger reports Giants FB Henry Hynoski (knee) is preparing to be ready for Week 1 and may be "a little" ahead in his rehab. | ||||||
Back in May, Hynoski went down with a lateral plateau fracture on his left knee. There were recent reports that Hynoski would likely start the season on the PUP list. That's still a possibility, but things are looking up for the Hynoceros. | ||||||

The Newark Star-Ledger suggests Giants FB Henry Hynoski (knee) may open the season on the PUP list. | ||||||
The move would cost "Hynocerous" the first six games. Hynoski suffered left MCL damage and a fractured lateral plateau at OTAs. The Giants are reportedly "concerned" with his injury, explaining their interest in free agent FB Vonta Leach. Hynoski has been an impact lead blocker when healthy, pile driving defenders on I-formation and offset-I runs in front of Ahmad Bradshaw and David Wilson. | ||||||

Giants FB Henry Hynoski was carted off the field with an undisclosed injury at OTAs on Wednesday. | ||||||
The "Hynoceros" is one of the top fullbacks in the game, and the Giants are one of few teams that still feature a lead blocker for their running backs. OTAs are non-contact, and non-contact injuries are typically never good. The G-Men might need to take a gander at the free-agent crop. | ||||||
