New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin is hopeful that linebacker Mathias Kiwanuka will be ready for their season opener after suffering a groin injury in Friday night’s preseason game.

“He’s sore,” coach Tom Coughlin said of Kiwanuka on a conference call today per Giants.com. “He’s had a similar injury to this in the past. Hopefully, it’s not going to be too long. I don’t know what his status is going to be for this game that’s coming so quickly. We would project for the opener and get this under control.”

Kiwanuka was asked about the Giants season opener and he said, ” I’ll be ready.”
