Player Notes

March 14, 2008
The Giants have decided to keep Derrick Ward in the fold for next season by signing him to a one-year, $1 million contract, according to the New York Daily News. He could earn another million in incentives. With Brandon Jacobs, Ahmad Bradshaw and Reuben Droughns already in the fold it's going to be tought for Ward to make much fantasy noise unless injuries open up playing time again in 2008. He racked up 602 yards and three touchdowns last season before injuries cut his season short.

February 28, 2008
Derrick Ward appears to be set to test the open market, according to a report in the Star-Ledger. The report cites sources with knowledge of the contract discussions - suggesting that the running back will attempt to gauge his value in free agency. Ward, who has battled various injuries during his four-year career, rushed for 602 yards on 125 carries last season.

February 6, 2008
The New York Giants have begun contract negotiations with unrestricted free-agent Derrick Ward, according to the NY Star-Ledger. Ward has missed 18 games due to injury the past few seasons, but when healthy has displayed plenty of explosiveness. He is capable of pushing Ahmad Bradshaw for time in the Giants backfield.

December 4, 2007
Derrick Ward was placed on IR Tuesday after suffering a broken leg on Sunday, according to the Sports Network. The Giants signed rookie Danny Ware off the Jets' practice squad to replace Ward on the roster. Brandon Jacobs is expected to return from his hamstring injury this weekend, so barring a setback, he'll start against the Eagles.

December 3, 2007
Derrick Ward may be done for the season. He fractured his left fibula near his ankle during Sunday's game, according to the New York Daily News. "Mine isn't a complete break," Ward said. "Mine is a fracture, a little line." More will be known about his status after an MRI is taken Monday morning, but it sounds like he'll miss at least some action, regardless. Brandon Jacobs, who missed Sunday's game with his own injury, and Reuben Droughns remain the other RB options for the Giants.
