When the New York Giants placed defensive tackle Damon Harrison on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list to start training camp, there was an instant worry among fans.

After three straight years of leading the league in injuries, the last thing anyone wanted to see was one of the team’s prized offseason additions shut down with a knee injury.

First-year head coach Ben McAdoo was quick to address the injury, as well as those suffered by defensive tackle Jay Bromley and linebacker J.T. Thomas, telling reporters on Thursday that none appear to be serious or long-term problems.

“We don’t think any of them are extremely serious at this point,” McAdoo told reporters.

Still, despite the subtle plea for calm from the coach, fans hit social media in a panic. And when he finally got a chance to sit down and check his Twitter, Harrison had been bombarded with tweets of concern.

In response, Harrison, who signed a five-year, $46.25 million deal early in free agency, basically asked everyone to just chill out and stop over-reacting.

Being new to the Giants, Harrison probably isn’t aware of the impending doom that seems to forever linger around the team. Fans have become accustomed to expecting the absolute worst in terms of injury news, so it’s no real surprise they feel panicked over a swollen knee to one of the team’s key defensive players.

But if Harrison and McAdoo are both telling people to chill out, then perhaps we should all take a deep breath and simply chill out. It’s still early and all indications are that Harrison will re-join the team on the field shortly.
