Giants injury report: Jihad Ward in concussion protocol

The New York Giants had 7 players sit out of practice on Wednesday, including LB Jihad Ward (concussion), while 4 others were limited.

The New York Giants returned to the practice field on Wednesday in preparation for a Week 15 game against the Washington Commanders.

In what is an undeniably must-win game, the Giants could use as many healthy bodies as possible. Unfortunately for them, there were quite a few banged-up players in a Sunday loss to the Philadelphia Eagles and the status of players such as Adoree’ Jackson remains very much up in the air.

Safety Xavier McKinney (hand) has already been ruled out for Sunday night and linebacker Jihad Ward is a new addition to the injury report.

The Giants’ full Wednesday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: OL Joshua Ezeudu (neck), CB Adoree’ Jackson (knee), OL Shane Lemieux (toe), WR Richie James Jr. (concussion), LB Jihad Ward (concussion), S Julian Love (rest), NT Dexter Lawrence (rest)

Limited participant: DB Nick McCloud (illness), DE Leonard Williams (neck), TE Daniel Bellinger (ribs), LB Elerson Smith (Achilles)

Full participant: LB Micah McFadden (neck/ankle)
