Giants injury report: Mike Remmers, seven others banged up

The New York Giants released a projected injury report on Wednesday and eight players were listed, including RT Mike Remmers.

The New York Giants held a walkthrough that was not open to the media on Tuesday, giving players and coaches the day off on Christmas Day instead.

Not so for us reporters.

Despite the building in East Rutherford being empty, the Giants released a projected Wednesday injury report, summoning those of us who cover the team back to our tablets and laptops.

Unfortunately for the Giants, said injury report was not very merry with eight players listed in total, four of whom were projected non-participants.

Among them was right tackle Mike Remmers, who left a Week 16 win over the Washington Redskins with a concussion, and linebacker Alec Ogletree, who suffered back injury before even taking the field last Sunday.

Additionally, rookie cornerback Corey Ballentine is now listed with a back injury, while linebacker Lorenzo Carter, who had a career day against the Skins, was also added to the injury report with a knee injury.

Four others were projected as limited, including reserve offensive lineman Nick Gates, who is listed with a shoulder injury.

The entire projected injury report released by the Giants can be found below:

Did not participate: CB Corey Ballentine (back), OT Mike Remmers (concussion), LB Alec Ogletree (back) and LB Lorenzo Carter (knee).

Limited participant: OL Nick Gates (shoulder), TE Rhett Ellison (concussion/non-contact), CB Sam Beal (shoulder) and WR Darius Slayton (knee).

Full participant: N/A

The Giants will return to practice on Thursday ahead of a Week 17 matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles at MetLife Stadium.
