As expected, the New York Giants will be without several key injured players for their matchup with the New England Patriots on Sunday.

As the Giants prepare for a showdown with the fellow 5-2 Patriots in their first regular-season meeting since Super Bowl XLII, New York will be without running back Ahmad Bradshaw, receiver Hakeem Nicks and center David Baas.

All three players were out and did not travel with the team. But receiver Ramses Barden was activated from the reserve list and could make his season debut in Foxboro.

Barden has not played since Nov. 14, 2010, when he broke his ankle in a game against the Dallas Cowboys.

The Giants will be missing their top rusher in Bradshaw (440 yards), top receiver in Nicks (38) catches and their starting center in Baas.

The trio became the latest Giants to get hurt, in last week's win over Miami.

Brandon Jacobs, who had been griping about his role and Giants' fans booing him before Bradshaw's injury, will start for Jacobs. Victor Cruz will likely move up to the top receiver spot, and Kevin Boothe will fill in for Baas.
