Eli has a stress reaction in his foot
Things have gone from bad to worse for Eli Manning and the New York Giants.
Manning, who had been playing with plantar fasciitis, has developed a stress reaction in his right foot, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. And if the stress reaction could turn into a stress fracture, which would end his season.
In his past six games, Manning has struggled more often than he has not.
He posted solid back-to-back performances against San Diego and Atlanta. But in his other four games during that span, he has thrown only three touchdowns and seven interceptions.
The Giants, who started 5-0, are now 6-5 and fighting for their playoff lives as their remaining schedule is challenging with their next three games against their division rivals.
From a fantasy perspective, Manning's opponents from week 13 to 16 (championship game in most leagues) are as follows (pass defense rankings in parenthesis): Dallas (19th), Philadelphia (9th), Washington (1st) and Carolina (5th).
