Injured Eli Manning returns to practice

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J., Oct. 9 (UPI) -- Injured New York quarterback Eli Manning returned to practice with the Giants offense, but his status for Sunday's game against Oakland remained questionable.

After missing two days of practice with soreness and swelling in his right foot, Manning shared snaps Friday with backup David Carr, ESPN reported.

"If he gets to the point that the medical people think he can play and not be subject to an injury, then chances are he will play," Coach Tom Coughlin said. "He wants to play in the worst way but he's not going to go against the medical people."

The Giants (4-0) will be at home against the Raiders (1-3).

Manning has passed for 1,039 yards and eight touchdowns in the four New York victories this season.
