Adam Schefter appeared on NFL Live to discuss the recovery window of WR Hakeem Nicks: "Giants are holding to 12 week timetable, and I think that's fairly accurate, but there's one person familiar with the injury who said he believes it's more of a 4- to 6-week injury."

Stephania Bell said that "12 weeks should not be an issue for him." But she also said recovery can last from four to 14 weeks; it depends on the case.

Fantasy Impact:

Twelve weeks of recovery would put Nicks back the week of Aug. 20, which would leave him a couple of weeks to prepare for Week 1 against the Cowboys (Sep. 5).

One person familiar with the fractured foot of Giants WR Hakeem Nicks said it was more like a "4- to 6-week" injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Hopefully we'll get a clarification on Nicks's timetable shortly.

Giants WR Hakeem Nicks fractures foot, out about three months

Newark Star-Ledger

May 24, 2012 · 3:57 PM EDT

Wide receiver Hakeem Nicks fractured the fifth metatarsal in his right foot while running a route and is expected to miss about 12 weeks, the team announced. Nicks will undergo surgery on Friday to have a screw inserted in the bone. Noted foot and ankle specialist Robert Anderson will perform the procedure in Charlotte, N.C.

The anticipated time frame for Nicks' recovery means he'll be out of action until mid-August, or about half of the preseason.

Fantasy Impact:

Rookie WR Rueben Randle will benefit from extra reps in OTAs and training camp, but barring a setback, expect Nicks and Victor Cruz to be the Giants top two WRs come Week 1.

Giants HC Tom Coughlin was reluctant to answer a question about which players impressed on the first day, but he did mention one by name: WR Rueben Randle.

“I was very impressed by Randle out on the field this morning,” the Giants coach said.

“What you see on film, it looks like we have a receiver that is capable of making some deep catches, running by some people,” OC Kevin Gilbride said. “As you guys have seen us unfold with those other two guys (Hakeem Nicks and Victor Cruz), they’re intermediate (threats) and certainly Hakeem can go deep.

“But you need that third component so that when people start skewing over and clamping down on Cruz and Nicks, you’ve got a guy who, if he gets 1-on-1, has the ability to get over the top and hurt people like Mario Manningham did.”

Fantasy Impact:

It appears that Randle is on track to become the team's WR3 behind Nicks and Cruz.
