EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw traveled to North Carolina to have his bothersome right ankle examined by specialist Dr. Robert Anderson.
There was no immediate word on Anderson's diagnosis for the injury, which has kept Bradshaw out of practice most of the season.
Bradshaw has missed Wednesday and Thursday practice most weeks while wearing a boot to protect both his sore right ankle and foot. He worked on a limited basis last Wednesday.
Despite the injury, which Bradshaw said resulted from his days in college, he has rushed for 455 yards this season.
Giants middle linebacker Antonio Pierce missed practice Wednesday with a sore ankle. Backup cornerback Kevin Dockery was excused from practice because of personal reasons.
