The Newark Star-Ledger reports that an MRI confirmed that Giants WR David Tyree needed knee surgery, and the Super Bowl hero for the club is recovering. Tyree said there was a problem in his joint that caused him pain, and that led to the procedure. He expects to miss all of the offseason minicamps but plans on being ready for training camp in July. "It more or less happened after (the season)," Tyree said. "It's something that they basically had to go in, take care of and clean up." (Updated 04/23/2008).
Injury Report
Knee - Questionable for the start of 2008 training camp (Updated - 4/23/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Tyree will be remembered for his 32-yard circus catch that helped propel the Giants to their win in Super Bowl XLII, not for his four-catch, 35-yard regular-season effort. Tyree also scored in the Super Bowl and finished the postseason with four catches for 47 yards. He might be a hero in New York, but Fantasy owners shouldn't reach for him in 2008 unless he makes a leap up the Giants' depth chart this offseason and training camp, and that goes double now that he's hurt. It's best to keep him off of Fantasy rank lists at this point. (Updated 04/23/2008).
