The New York Giants lost receivers Mario Manningham and Domenik Hixon with injuries in their 28-16 victory over the St. Louis Rams on Monday night.

Manningham, who set up a touchdown by Hixon late in the first half with a 31-yard catch, didn't return for the second half because of a concussion.

Hixon injured his right calf while making a juggling 22-yard touchdown catch with 21 seconds left in the first half.

Hixon played on the Giants opening series in the third quarter but the team announced after it was over that he wouldn't return.

''We have a couple of people that are nicked,'' coach Tom Coughlin said.

St. Louis lost linebacker Ben Leber in the third period with a groin injury. He will be re-examined in St. Louis on Tuesday.
