The New York Giants have elevated running back Jashaun Corbin and wide receiver Kalil Pimpleton from their practice squad ahead of a Wild Card game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Both are standard elevations.
Neither Corbin nor Pimpleton have been elevated this season and Sunday will mark the first NFL game for both rookies. It’s unclear how the Giants intend to use either or if they’re simply there to provide some additional depth.
The Giants have had some minor issues at wide receiver this week with Marcus Johnson dealing with an ankle injury and Isaiah Hodgins dealing with an ankle injury.
Hodgins was a late addition to the injury report but did not receive a game designation. Both he and Johnson are expected to play, assuming Johnson isn’t listed as an inactive.
Corbin and Pimpleton have return experience, so it’s possible we see one or both in those roles.
