Giants GM Reese: We can't move forward with David Wilson as starting RB

New York Giants running back David Wilson insists he will continue his career despite a significant neck injury that cost him most of his sophomore season as a pro, but his general manager is less sure Wilson will be back on the field next season.

"I think we'll have to have some contingency plans at the running back position," Giants GM Jerry Reese said Monday, via NJ.com. "I don't think you go into the next season saying David Wilson's going to be our No. 1 starting running back. I don't think you can do that."

It remains unclear whether Wilson will require offseason surgery on his neck. By all accounts, his injury is still considered by doctors to be career-threatening.

Andre Brown, who himself missed much of the season due to injury, appears to be the Giants' best option at the position. He's an impending free agent, but it would not be a surprise to see him re-sign with the Giants.
