Tue Nov 16 201008:27Calhoun now Giants' No. 3 receiver
Injuries have forced Duke Calhoun into the No. 3 receiver role for the Giants.
Ramses Barden is expected to miss the rest of the season, and Steve Smith might be sidelined into January, so Calhoun is being promoted by default even though he doesn't have an NFL catch. When asked if Calhoun was ready to contribute, coach Tom Coughlin said he had "no choice." Hakeem Nicks and Mario Manningham will be seeing a ton of targets over the next few weeks.
