Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw left Sunday’s game with a foot injury, and today’s news about that injury is not good.

Mike Garafolo of the Star-Ledger reports that Bradshaw suffered a cracked bone in his foot and is out indefinitely.

At the moment, Bradshaw is not sure whether he will need surgery. He has previously had surgery to insert screws in both feet, and on Sunday the Giants’ medical staff apparently thought it was one of the screws that was bothering Bradshaw. It was only later that they realized he had a broken bone.

Bradshaw is the Giants’ leading rusher, with 111 carries for 440 yards and five touchdowns this season. Brandon Jacobs, who has been largely disappointing with a 3.0-yard average and two touchdowns this year, will carry a heavy load while Bradshaw is out.
