EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. —€” New York Giants cornerback Prince Amukamara likely is done for the year after suffering a torn biceps in Monday night's 40-24 loss the Indianapolis Colts.

Amukamara, their top cover corner, was hurt in the first half. The Giants did not say how long Amukamara would be sidelined, but a torn biceps is usually a season-ending injury.

New York lost rookie left guard Weston Richburg to a left ankle injury in the third quarter.

Amukamara has three interceptions this season, tied with Antrel Rolle for the team lead. He had three career interceptions coming into the season.

Amukamara was selected in the first round of the 2011 draft. The only full season he has played for New York was last year.

Richburg, a second-round pick, has started every game. He was carted off and the Giants announced he would not return.

Colts defensive tackle Ricky Jean Francois hurt a finger in the opening half. Linebacker Victor Butler left in the second half with a hamstring injury.
