Hakeem Nicks is stepping up for the New York Giants
Rookie WR Hakeem Nicks missed part of the early season due to injury but he is making up for lost time. He has caught 7 passes for 121 yards (17.3 avg) with 2 TD grabs. Nicks has pretty much already passed up Domenik Hixon who was a starter for the Giants last season. He might even overtake Mario Manningham in the starting lineup but that might take him some time. After all, Manningham has caught 20 passes for 342 yards (17.1 avg) with 3 TD grabs this season. Nicks is the big, home run type WR that the Giants have not had since Plaxico Burress was out of jail and playing for them.
