LONDON -- New York Giants coach Ben McAdoo isnt going to abandon Josh Brown, even after leaving the kicker home as his team prepares for Sundays game against the Los Angeles Rams in London.Were not going to turn our back on Josh, McAdoo said as he was being peppered with questions two days after documents revealed Brown admitted he had abused his wife. Hes our teammate.Several Giants players, including star quarterback Eli Manning, also spoke about Browns situation and the impact it has had on the teams mindset ahead of the game in Twickenham Stadium.[Im] not aware of what ownership said or any of the announcements, Manning said Friday. My focus this week has been getting ready for the Rams. Obviously, I dont know what went on behind the scenes. All I can do is support my teammates and support the organization.Offensive lineman Justin Pugh tweeted that he was misinformed and unknowingly speaking with limited information earlier this year when he supported Brown, saying also that he does not condone domestic violence of any kind.Linebacker Jonathan Casillas echoed Mannings sentiments, saying that many players still are not aware of all the details but also acknowledging that it is not too good for anyone that is involved in it.It is tough, Casillas said. What was said and what was done is not what we represent as Giants. It is a tough situation for him.McAdoo said he went to each position room Thursday to inform players that Brown would not make the trip to London. The Giants left Thursday evening, and former Bears kicker Robbie Gould has signed a one-year deal and will join the team Saturday in London.The team said it will revisit the issue when it returns and is on its bye week. The NFL also announced it would review the documents that included Browns admissions of domestic violence. Both the league and team have indicated there is new information in the case file from Browns 2015 arrest in Washington.[Brown] admitted to us hed abused his wife in the past, Giants co-owner John Mara said Thursday during a radio interview with New York station WFAN. Whats a little unclear is the extent of that.McAdoo wouldnt say whether he knew this during the summer, when he expressed his support for Brown as a man, father and player. Instead, the Giants coach constantly repeated a version of this line as he was being questioned Friday.Were looking to get as much information as we can to make an informed decision, McAdoo said.McAdoo did add, when pressed on several subjects, that everythings concerning.Manning participated in the No More campaign in 2014, when multiple NFL players and Hollywood celebrities spoke out against domestic violence in commercials, public service announcements and on social media.When asked whether the latest news about Brown is a distraction to himself or his teammates, Manning once again emphasized that he is concentrating on the Rams.Theres going to be distractions every week, he said. Something is going on -- you dont like when a teammate cant make a game. But, hey, weve got to do our job and thats getting ready to play this football game.

I felt good. Everything was coming out nice. I felt like I had my electric stuff todayy, Axford said.dddddddddddd But I wasnt finding the zone and some of the borderline ones, Im not going to get. Im all over the place, Im not going to get something close.TERRIFIC TRIGGSOakland rookie starter Andrew Triggs limited the Rangers to two hits and one run over 5 2/3 innings in his third career start.
