The Facts: The Giants moved Jacobs, who had missed the last two games with a knee injury, to injured reserve.

Diehards Line: The move brings an end to a surprising run for the veteran back, who returned to the Giants this season and posted several big games. Despite battling hamstring and knee woes the last few weeks, he's still the team leader with four rushing TDs. Jacobs has a franchise-record 60 rushing touchdowns, and his 5,087 rushing yards are fourth-most in team history. He said last week that his knee would need offseason surgery. With Jacobs gone, Andre Brown and veteran Peyton Hillis will likely shoulder most of the load for the rest of the year.
