Giants' Brandon Mosley, 2 others carted off practice field
Training camp got off to a rough start for the New York Giants on Tuesday.
As reported by Jordan Raanan of NJ.com, the Giants had four players suffer apparent injuries. Three of those players - offensive lineman Brandon Mosley, linebacker Jameel McClain, and tight end Xavier Grimble - had to be carted off the field.

Mosley, who is among the candidates to replace the recently-retired Chris Snee, took the majority of first-team snaps at right guard before leaving practice.
Rookie wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. suffered an apparent leg injury earlier in practice, but remained on the field with his helmet on.
Speaking with reporters after practice, Giants head coach Tom Coughlin said the exits of Mosley and Grimble were likely due to heat.
Coughlin's answer on Jameel McClain seemed to be that his shoe was irritating his foot, but he's "interested to see" what it actually is.
