Osi Umenyiora didn't show during Wednesday morning's mandatory media session, drawing the defensive end a $20,000 fine from the NFL.
He was one of six Giants who were featured on risers to talk to the media, while the rest of the team was available in a large conference room.
"I misunderstood the schedule," Umenyiora said in a statement released by the team.
"It won't happen again, and I will be at tomorrow's media session and available after the game. I apologize for any inconvenience my absence this morning may have caused."
