Hakeem Nicks, Jordan Hemby Have Rough Weekends In Pros

Posted Aug 23, 2010
Wide receiver Hakeem Nicks is expected to be a big part of the New York Giants offense this season, but on Saturday night, he was a big part of an altercation on the field. Nicks became involved in a scuffle with Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back Ike Taylor, and both players were ejected from the exhibition game. Meanwhile, former UNC defensive back Jordan Hemby was lost for the year after tearing his anterior cruciate ligament. (WCHL 1360)
