After getting blindsided from a block by Seahawk Kam Chancellor, Cardinals tight end Todd Heap says he is good to go this week against the New York Giants.

The hit drew an unnecessary roughness flag, but Heap is not holding on to any grudges.

“I’m pretty much over it,” said Heap. “Obviously we play them again but I’m moving on to next week.”

The hit came while Heap was running after a Seahawks defender carrying the ball after an interception. The interception was called back due to a penalty but the hit on Heap had lingering effects.

“I wasn’t feeling great coming out of that game but it was mostly the wind getting knocked out of me,” said Heap.

Heap said it wasn’t the first time it has happened to him playing football, but it was one of the worst hits he’s had put on him.

The 11-year veteran knows those types of plays are going to come with the game.

“It’s football, you always have to expect the unexpected,” said Heap.
