Osi Umenyiora is not practicing with the Giants

[Coachnorm]

Umenyiora (hip) will not practice Wednesday, New York Daily News writer Ralph Vacchiano reports. The Drama is building.

Monday: Giants allow Osi to seek a trade and attach a first round pick to it.

Tuesday: An incorrect rumor circulates that the Giants lowered their demand to a second rounder.

Wednesday: The Giants tell Osi he can't seek a trade.

I Know, this is almost as dramatic as Palmer/Brown.

Well its with a much less valuable player, but the focus in NY needs to be beating the Eagles and making the playoffs, not a replacable disgruntled DE.

(Rotoworld) Osi Umeyiora was reportedly "fuming" Wednesday morning when he discovered the Giants had pulled his permission to seek a trade.
Analysis: "He is sure they could've traded him," one source close to Umenyiora told the New York Daily News. "They had a lot more interest in him than they thought they would." In addition to the half-dozen teams already mentioned as potential trade partner, beat writer Ralph Vacchiano reports the Bears "jumped in late." Umenyiora isn't going to be practicing anytime soon even in the face of fines or a suspension "Then it becomes a matter for the union," said a source, "and that's when it could get really ugly."
