GREEN BAY, Wis. -- How's this for insult to injury: Moments after Eli Manning left the field following the Giants' 38-13 loss to the Packers in a Wild-Card game on Sunday, the quarterback was forced to undergo a drug test.

So, the Giants quarterback stood in nothing but compression shorts in a hallway outside a bathroom waiting to provide a urine sample to NFL drug testers. Manning had to return to the Giants' locker room and come back to the bathroom, possibly to retrieve his ID, walking past a crowded hallway full of reporters on the way.

Manning wasn't the only player subjected to the random testing. Safety Andrew Adams and defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins were also forced to report for testing immediately after the game.

Manning completed 23-of-44 passes for 299 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's game. The Giants' offense struggled throughout the game, with Manning getting little help from his wide receivers and offensive line.

Having to submit to a drug test immediately after games has drawn criticism from NFL players this season.

"I don't like how the NFL has us drug test right after the game," Redskins cornerback Josh Norman said in September. "I don't understand that. It's crazy. I don't have anything left in the tank, yet they want you to drug test. It's crazy. I don't understand it. I don't get it. I really don't. Shoot -- we can't wait until tomorrow?"

This topic may be the one area to provide common ground for the Giants and Norman.
