WR Manningham expected to play next week

Update: CBSsports.com is reporting that New York Giants WR Mario Manningham is expected to play next week but doesn't know how his hip injury will be after a full week of practice. Manningham has a hip flexor that is "an issue" according to Head Coach Tom Coughlin.

Fantasy Impact: Manningham will be filling WR Steve Smith's shoes now that Smith is out for the year with a knee injury. He already has five touchdowns on the year and will probably greatly improve those numbers now that Smith is gone. If healthy, he should be used as a second or third wide receiver in all fantasy leagues.
