EAST RUTHERFORD, New Jersey (Ticker) -- The New York Giants saw starting offensive tackle Kareem McKenzie and emerging wide receiver Domenik Hixon both suffer concussions in Sunday's 44-6 victory over the Seattle Seahawks.

McKenzie was replaced by Kevin Boothe with just over five minutes remaining in the first half.

Three plays after McKenzie left the game, Hixon sustained a helmet-to-helmet hit from cornerback Josh Wilson following a 16-yard reception. Neither player returned in the second half.

Hixon, who replaced suspended starter Plaxico Burress, finished with four catches for 102 yards and a touchdown.
