New Haven (Conn.) Register—August 15, 2012

New York Giants defensive tackle Shaun Rogers is being treated for a blood clot in his left calf.

The Giants announced Tuesday that the 12-year veteran was seen by orthopedic surgeon Russell Warren and vascular surgeon John Karwowaki on Monday at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.

Rogers experienced swelling in his lower leg after playing in the preseason opener Friday. He missed practice Sunday and Monday.

Defensive end Justin Trattou, who has been sidelined since early in training camp at the University at Albany with ankle and heel injuries, was examined by ankle specialist Dr. David Levine and is not expected back on the field for a couple of weeks.
