I just saw this two... but we are already at week 5... so 6-8 seems reasonable quote from him.
It happened in week 2 of the pre season?
The positive news is that OBJ got in a limited practice today, and reports are that some folks are "optimistic" that he'll play in week 2.
The bad news is, according to OBJ, this could be an injury that hampers him (and, hence, the entire Giants' offense) for several more weeks.

From a player who milks everything as much as possible, sounds like he's just dramatizing the injury as usual.
Certainly possible, and probably what most would be hoping for given the utterly dismal showing by the Giants offense last week.
If it is that serious of an injury, it'd be notable that he hasn't been seen in a boot or cast of any sort during his absence and I think there were reports of him goofing around in a dance-off contest of some sort with someone last week.
