Giants injury report: Brian Burns expected to play vs. Falcons

New York Giants LB Brian Burns missed practice again on Thursday, joining a 21-player injury report, but is expected to play vs. Falcons.

The New York Giants took the field on Thursday for their second of three practices ahead of a Week 16 game against the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia.

Beforehand, head coach Brian Daboll updated the status of several injured players, including linebacker Brian Burns, who he said would not practice for the second straight day but could suit up come Sunday.

“Should be ready to go for the game,” he said of Burns.

Daboll was also optimistic that quarterback Tommy DeVito, who remains in concussion protocol, would serve as QB2 against the Falcons.

“I think he’ll be available,” he said.

Meanwhile, quarterback Drew Lock, who is dealing with heel and elbow issues, made it through Wednesday’s practice okay and remains the projected starter on Sunday.

Giants list an astonishing 21 players on injury report

The New York Giants listed an astonishing 21 players on their Wednesday injury report, including linebackers Brian Burns and Bobby Okereke.

The New York Giants returned to practice on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for a Week 16 game against the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia.

Before taking the field, head coach Brian Daboll stepped up to the podium and spoke with reporters.

Two days after lacking clarity on the quarterback situation, Daboll revealed that Drew Lock is expected to start on Sunday barring a setback. He also expects Tommy DeVito to clear concussion protocol and serve as QB3.

“Drew should be okay,” Daboll told reporters. “(DeVito) moving through the protocol. He’ll do something today. I envision him being — I mean, who knows with concussions, but he’ll have a chance. If he is, he’ll be number two.”

Tim Boyle, who took over in Week 15, will fill the role of emergency third quarterback.

Meanwhile, Daboll revealed that linebacker Patrick Johnson will likely miss Sunday’s game with a knee issue.

The New York Giants took the field on Thursday for their second of three practices ahead of a Week 15 game against the Baltimore Ravens at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Beforehand, head coach Brian Daboll updated the status of several injured players, including positive news regarding offensive tackle Evan Neal and cornerback Deonte Banks, each of whom has a chance to play on Sunday.

Giants injury report: Drew Lock, Jon Runyan likely out vs. Ravens

The New York Giants listed nearly 20 players on their Wednesday injury report, including QB Drew Lock and OL Jon Runyan Jr.

The New York Giants returned to practice on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for a Week 15 game against the Baltimore Ravens at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Before taking the field, head coach Brian Daboll stepped up to the podium and spoke with reporters.

Most of what Daboll revealed was not anything considered positive news, beginning with quarterback Drew Lock, who is in a walking boot and unlikely to play on Sunday.

“I wouldn’t say he’s doing great. He’s in a boot,” Daboll said. “He has a heel. He won’t practice today. He won’t be out on a practice field today. Can’t tell you if he’d be ready to go right now. So, Tommy (DeVito) will get all the reps.

“Can’t see him going tomorrow. Hopefully Friday we can see whether or not he can end up being a two or a three. But, not there yet as of today.”

Additionally, guard Jon Runyan Jr. is also expected to miss the Ravens game but there is at least some optimism that left tackle Jermaine Eluemunor could return.

“Jermaine, he’s made good progress,” Daboll said. “Probably more optimistic with Jermaine.”

If there was a sliver of good news, it’s that cornerback Deonte Banks returned to practice on a limited basis.

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

Did not participate: QB Drew Lock (heel), CB Andru Phillips (shoulder), LB Bobby Okereke (back), OL Jon Runyan Jr. (ankle), OL Evan Neal (ankle), DT Rakeem Nunez-Roches (neck/shoulder)

Giants elevate CB Art Green, LB Ty Summers from practice squad

The New York Giants have elevated LB Ty Summers and CB Art Green from their practice squad ahead of a Week 3 game.

The New York Giants have elevated cornerback Art Green and linebacker Ty Summers from their practice squad ahead of a Week 3 game against the Cleveland Browns.

Kicker Jude McAtamney was not elevated or signed to the active roster, meaning Greg Joseph has won the week-long competition and will start in place of Graham Gano (IR) on Sunday.

The Giants signed the 28-year-old Summers to their practice squad in late August and he’s been elevated in each of the first three weeks. Now out of standard elevations, the team will have to sign him to the 53-man roster if they want to use him on gameday again.

Like Summers, the Giants signed the 24-year-old Green to their practice squad in late August — one day after Summers. This is his first standard elevation and he has two remaining.

In Week 2, the Giants elevated linebacker Tomon Fox alongside Summers. He has two standard elevations remaining.

In Week 1, the Giants elevated linebacker Carter Coughlin and Summers. Coughlin suffered a pectoral injury against the Minnesota Vikings and has since been placed on injured reserve (IR).

For the first time this season, the Giants will enter a game with their full 53-man roster and two practice squad elevations.

Broncos officially announce first 8 roster cuts

The Broncos officially announced their first eight roster cuts as the team approaches a 53-man roster.

The Denver Broncos took their first eight steps toward finalizing a 53-man roster on Monday.

First, the Broncos released three veterans: defensive lineman Angelo Blackson, wide receiver Phillip Dorsett and inside linebacker Andre Smith. Those players will not be subject to the NFL’s waiver wire.

Second, the team waived five young players: safety Omar Brown, cornerback Art Green, defensive back Kaleb Hayes, offensive lineman Oliver Jervis and inside linebacker Alec Mock.

Those are the first eight official cuts among 38 moves on deck in Denver. The Broncos confirmed those cuts on Monday.

It was not announced by the club, but the team also informed punter Trenton Gill that he will be waived. The fact that the Gill cut is not yet official suggests Denver might be looking to trade the punter ahead of the roster cuts deadline.

The Broncos also made decisions on wide receiver Tim Patrick and running back Samaje Perine on Monday. Denver will look to trade both Patrick and Perine. If they are unable to find trade partners, the Broncos will release those veterans before submitting a 53-man roster on Tuesday.

We are tracking all of the team’s roster moves on Broncos Wire.

Broncos cornerbacks Art Green (concussion) and Levi Wallace (hamstring) were the only active-roster players not in pads on Thursday. After yesterday’s practice, coach Sean Payton indicated Green will sit out this week but will likely return for the team’s preseason finale next week.

“I don’t want to use the word a mild concussion, but the symptom scores are better for him,” Payton said of Green. “There’s a good chance that he won’t go this week and then we feel strongly he’ll be ready to go next week.”

In addition to injured players, the Broncos also held out cornerback Pat Surtain and defensive linemen Zach Allen, John Franklin-Myers and Eyioma Uwazurike in their preseason opener. All four should play this week.

“[W]e have a number of guys that didn’t play in the game,” Payton said. “I don’t want to go through them all, but we feel somewhat positive that all of them will be involved this week and getting work against Green Bay.”
