EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — New York Giants linebacker Michael Boley and defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul have some issues with their backs.

Boley missed practice Tuesday with an undisclosed back problem, while Pierre-Paul had his back tighten up during practice. He had an ice pack applied and did not participate for roughly the final 30 minutes.

Boley had an interception return for a touchdown in the Giants’ 20-10 loss to Carolina in their season opener. Pierre-Paul had two sacks.

Also missing practice Tuesday were linebacker Clint Sintim (knee), quarterback Sage Rosenfels (strep throat), placekicker Lawrence Tynes (thigh), and defensive backs Jarrard Tarrant (shoulder) and Woodny Turenne (calf).

Wide receiver Domenik Hixon, who had major knee surgery last year, was given the day off to rest his knee.
