Giants’ Gunner Olszewski, Carter Coughlin out long-term

New York Giants WR Gunner Olszewski and LB Carter Coughlin are out long-term and WR Darius Slayton is in concussion protocol.

Not only was the New York Giants’ pride hurt during Sunday’s 28-6 loss to the Minnesota Vikings but their bodies got beat up as well.

Giants head coach Brian Daboll informed the media on Monday of the following injuries:

  • Cornerback Nick McCloud (knee) is currently “day to day,” but he could be more “week to week.”
  • Wide receiver Darius Slayton has been placed in the concussion protocol.
  • Kick returner Gunner Olszewski, who re-injured his groin in warmups on Sunday, will be out “for weeks.” Daboll said he was cleared to play on Sunday before re-injuring himself.
  • Linebacker/special teamer Carter Coughlin (pectoral) is out “months.”

Also, inside linebacker Micah McFadden (groin) and offensive tackle Evan Neal (ankle) did not play in Sunday’s game.

All five starting offensive linemen (Andrew Thomas, Greg Van Roten, John Michael Schmitz, Jon Runyan Jr., and Jermaine Eluemunor) played every snap as did quarterback Daniel Jones and rookie wide receiver Malik Nabors.

On defense, cornerback Deonte Banks, linebacker Bobby Okereke, and rookie safety Tyler Nubin were on the field for all 55 defensive snaps.
