Landon Collins said it was something between DRC and McAdoo that he believes stemmed from Sunday. He even called it an "altercation." — Jordan Raanan (@JordanRaanan) October 11, 2017

Something happened at halftime involving DRC. He took off his pads for a moment. Details hazy after that. #Giants — James Kratch (@JamesKratch) October 11, 2017

It got heated. DRC has been a good soldier, playing the slot, doing what was asked. As competitive as he is, getting pulled was too much. https://t.co/uXvqsAAfKb — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) October 11, 2017

EAST RUTHERFORD -- The Giants were missing two starting defensive backs at practice Wednesday, but only one was listed on the injury report.

Cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie was missing from practice for an unspecified reason. A team spokesman said he did not have any information on the veteran's absence. Rodgers-Cromartie was spotted leaving the locker room on Tuesday when it opened to reporters.

Head coach Ben McAdoo is schedule to hold a press conference at 1:30 p.m.

Rodgers-Cromartie did exit Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Chargers due to what was believed to be a left leg injury, but he was excluded from the injury report. Safety Landon Collins is on the injury report with an ankle injury; he was also missing from practice, as was wide receiver Sterling Shepard, who has an ankle injury.

"DRC was in and out," McAdoo said after the loss to the Chargers. "He was hobbled a little bit."

Rodgers-Cromartie has appeared in all five games for the Giants this season with four starts. He has worked primarily in the slot, but has also played outside when needed due to Janoris Jenkins' ankle injury and Eli Apple's recent benching for performance reasons. Rodgers-Cromartie has 26 tackles and a half-sack this season.

Linebacker Jonathan Casillas (neck), running back Paul Perkins (ribs), center Weston Richburg (concussion) and defensive end Olivier Vernon (ankle) were all at practice, but did not appear to be participating during the period open to reporters.
