D&#201J&#192 VU: Domenik Hixon of the New York Giants kneels on the turf in pain after a touchdown catch on September 19 against the Saint Louis Rams at MetLife Stadium. It was revealed on Tuesday that Hixon tore his ACL on the play and will undergo season-ending knee surgery for the second year in a row. The Giants may also be without wide receiver Mario Manningham, who left Sunday's game with concussion symptoms. The Giants, who appeared set at wide receiver before the season, may be wishing they had signed Steve Smith after all. (Getty Images/Al Bello)
