The Giants seem to have sidestepped a major injury in their first OTA of the offseason.
Defensive end Robert Ayers Jr. was carted off the field after trainers examined his left leg during the workout Wednesday, but tests showed no serious damage to either his knee or ankle. It's unclear how long Ayers will be sidelined exactly, but he's expected to be back sometime during the spring workouts, which conclude next month.
The Giants have had some rotten luck when it comes to injuries in OTAs in recent years. Last year, Jon Beason injured his foot, which robbed him of most of his season and eventually required surgery.
