The NFL today officially deducted 2 yards from Brandon Jacobs’ rushing total in the Giants’ victory at Buffalo last Sunday. Because of the change, the Giants’ rushing total no longer is the most in the league since 1959.

Jacobs goes from 145 yards rushing to 143, and the team total drops from 291 to 289, in the 38-21 win that clinched a playoff berth. The 2 yards initially had been credited as fumble yardage.

Along with Jacobs’ 143 yards, rookie Ahmad Bradshaw gained 151 yards on the ground.
