EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning said he will play Saturday against the Baltimore Ravens.
Manning will practice Monday but will wear a baseball cap instead of a helmet in the non-contact session. He expects to be able to put on a helmet for Wednesday's practice.
Manning had 12 stitches removed from his forehead on Friday and sat out Saturday's preseason loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
He suffered a three-inch gash when he had his helmet knocked off when hit from behind by Jets linebacker Calvin Pace. Manning's forehead then struck Jets safety Jim Leonhard's facemask.
