Hakeem Nicks told his HC he'll be back soon. " 'I'll be back for training camp' were his final words," Tom Coughlin told reporters.

Nicks was originally expected to miss up to 12 weeks while recovering from a broken foot he suffered during an OTA last week, but the timetable was reportedly reduced to 4-6 weeks after doctors discovered the injury wasn't as bad as initially feared.
With 76 catches for 1,192 yards and seven touchdowns last season, Nicks was a major reason the Giants won the Super Bowl.
