Defensive end Osi Umenyiora, a chronic violator of the NFL’s Media Policy, was smacked with a $20,000 fine by the NFL for skipping the Giants’ second mandatory media session on Wednesday morning. Every one of the Giants’ players and coaches, including every member of the practice squad, was in attendance for the 45-minute session in side the Giants’ team hotel. The Patriots had full attendance at their session earlier in the morning, too. Umenyiora, however, apparently remained back in his hotel room, which was a direct violation of league rules. The Giants did not offer an explanation for his absence, though a spokesman said that it was not injury related and that Umenyiora was on time for a 12:15 p.m. team meeting. He is also expected to wear patriots super bowl xlvi jerseys and practice this afternoon when the Giants take the field at the University of Indianapolis. Umenyiora has been threatened with fines several times by the NFL during the last two regular seasons for not speaking to reporters either during the practice week or after games. This is believed to be the first time he has actually been fined.
