The New York Giants will be without right tackle Evan Neal on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys after he suffered a second ankle injury during a Week 9 game versus the Las Vegas Raiders. But he won’t be the only one missing.
On Saturday, the Giants also announced that right guard Mark Glowinski had been downgraded to out. He was previously listed as questionable due to a personal matter.
“He’s not. He’s still a personal day,” head coach Brian Daboll said on Friday when asked if Glowinski would practice.
Glowinski missed practice on both Thursday and Friday, and did not travel with the team to Arlington on Sunday.
It’s unclear what Glowinski is dealing with away from the field but given how much time he’s missed, there is a legitimate reason for concern. Those of us at Giants Wire wish him and his family the best.
With Glowinski and Neal both out, the Giants will start another different offensive line combination — their seventh of the season. They have not started the same five players in consecutive weeks all year long.
Although the Giants did not place Neal on injured reserve (IR) this weekend, he remains a candidate to end up there given his “week-to-week” designation.
