    The New York Giants placed three more players on injured reserve Tuesday, including longtime defensive end Mathias Kiwanuka, who's out for the season with a knee injury and could now be finished as a Giant after nine seasons and two Super Bowl titles.

    Kiwanuka missed Sunday's game with a knee injury that has been bothering him all season.

    Kiwanuka has played in 126 games and started 85 (including postseason) for the Giants since they selected him No. 32 overall in the 2006 draft out of Boston College. Even before his season-ending injury, he was a strong candidate to be released this offseason for salary cap reasons. He'll be 32 next year and is scheduled to count $7.45 million against the 2015 salary cap. The Giants can save $4.825 million against next year's cap by cutting him.
