Vikings fullback Felton charged with DWI
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J., Jan. 19 (UPI) -- New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning returned to practice Thursday after missing a day with a stomach illness.
The NFC championship and a trip to the Super Bowl will be on the line Sunday when the Giants meet the San Francisco 49ers.
"I'm 100 percent," Manning said after the workout. "I had a full practice today. I did everything and I feel good."
Manning was on the field to start New York's practice session Wednesday but the stomach problems eventually forced him to turn things over to backup quarterback David Carr.
"I just woke up not feeling well yesterday and just tried to tough it out through meetings and everything and did fine," Manning said. "Once we got out to practice, it just wasn't going well, so I just kind of tried to be smart.
"I came back in and got some fluids and just tried to make sure I didn't make it worse. I'm just fortunate this happened on a Wednesday and not later in the week."
Manning set personal bests this year with 4,933 passing yards and 29 touchdowns in the regular season. In his two playoff games against Atlanta and Green Bay he has thrown for 607 yards and six scores.
