Giants’ injury report swells with nearly 20 players listed

The New York Giants released their Thursday injury report and it swelled to nearly 20 players, including 18 of whom are on the 53-man roster.

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.

Daboll also revealed that rookie safety Tyler Nubin, who was placed on season-ending injured reserve (IR) on Wednesday, will “probably” undergo surgery on his injured ankle.

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)

Limited participant: CB Deonte Banks (rib), CB Cor’Dale Flott (quad/knee), OL Jermaine Eluemunor (quad), OL Chris Hubbard (knee), S Dane Belton (knee), OL Joshua Ezeudu (knee), WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton (shoulder), DB Art Green (quad), WR Malik Nabers (hip), DL Jordon Riley (knee), OL John Michael Schmitz (neck), OL Austin Schlottmann (fibula)

Giants injury report: Jermaine Eluemunor, Evan Neal return to practice

New York Giants OL Jermaine Eluemunor and OL Evan Neal returned to practice on Thursday, while QB Tommy DeVito took a step toward suiting up.

The New York Giants took the field on Thursday for their second of three practices ahead of a Week 14 game against the New Orleans Saints at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Beforehand, head coach Brian Daboll updated the status of several injured players, including quarterback Tommy DeVito, who now appears in line to suit up on Sunday.

“(He looked) better than he’s been, so he will be the No. 2,” Daboll said.

Daboll also offered a positive update on offensive tackles Jermaine Eluemunor and Evan Neal, revealing their return to practice.

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

Did not participate: CB Deonte Banks (rib), LB Bobby Okereke (back), DT Rakeem Nunez-Roches (neck)

Limited participant: OL Jermaine Eluemunor (quad), OL Evan Neal (hip), DT D.J. Davidson (shoulder), DT Jordon Riley (knee), S Dane Belton (hip), WR Malik Nabers (groin), S Tyler Nubin (knee)

Giants injury report: Dyontae Johnson designated to return from IR

The New York Giants have activated linebacker Dyontae Johnson to return from IR on a day with a very lengthy injury report.

The New York Giants returned to practice on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for a Week 14 game against the New Orleans Saints 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.

Among Daboll’s reveals was that quarterback Tommy DeVito is still dealing with a forearm injury, which means Drew Lock will start on Sunday. The coach would not commit to DeVito being active as a backup.

The Giants also designated linebacker Dyontae Johnson to return from injured reserve (IR). His 21-day window officially opened on Wednesday as he returned to practice.

Daboll also shared ominous news on a multitude of other players, including offensive tackle Jermaine Eluemunor, saying they all have a chance to play against the Saints but should be considered “week to week,” which effectively encompasses the remainder of the season.

“I’d say week-to-week,” Daboll said of the injured players. “I think they all have a chance, but I think it’s too early to tell how optimistic I am with it.”

If Eluemunor and right tackle Evan Neal can’t play on Sunday, Chris Hubbard and Joshua Ezeudu will start.

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

Did not participate: CB Deonte Banks (rib), LB Bobby Okereke (back), OL Jermaine Eluemunor (quad), OL Evan Neal (hip), DT Rakeem Nunez-Roches (neck)

Limited participant: QB Tommy DeVito (forearm), DT D.J. Davidson (shoulder), DT Jordon Riley (knee), WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton (Achilles), LB Dyontae Johnson (ankle)

Giants’ Malik Nabers, Kayvon Thibodeaux questionable vs. Buccaneers

The New York Giants have listed five players as questionable against the Buccaneers, including WR Malik Nabers and LB Kayvon Thibodeaux.

The New York Giants wrapped up their week of practice on Friday afternoon in East Rutherford, New Jersey and their final injury report indicates the team is relatively healthy for the first time in weeks.

But that wasn’t without some pitfalls.

Rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers was added to the injury report on Friday and did not practice after suffering a groin injury. Linebacker Micah McFadden also missed practice but told reporters he expects to play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Both players are listed as questionable.

Full injury reports for both the Giants and Buccaneers can be found below:

Giants injury report: Dexter Lawrence limited for second straight day

For the second straight day, New York Giants nose tackle Dexter Lawrence was limited in practice with a knee injury.

The New York Giants took the field on Thursday for their second of three practices ahead of a Week 12 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Beforehand, head coach Brian Daboll met with reporters and expressed optimism that edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux would be activated from injured reserve (IR) and play on Sunday.

“Encouraged,” Daboll said.

Even if Thibodeaux suits up on Sunday, defensive coordinator Shane Bowen said that fellow edge rusher Azeez Ojulari has earned the right to play, hinting at a rotational snap share.

Meanwhile, nose tackle Dexter Lawrence, who is usually given veteran rest days, was limited in practice for the second consecutive day.

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

Did not participate: None

Limited participant: WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton (Achilles), NT Dexter Lawrence (knee), LB Darius Muasau (hamstring), S Tyler Nubin (back)

Full participant: WR Darius Slayton (concussion), LB Matthew Adams (knee), TE Theo Johnson (back), CB Andru Phillips (hip), LB Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist), OL Greg Van Roten (abdomen)

Giants injury report: Kayvon Thibodeaux designated to return from IR

The New York Giants have designated edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist) to return from injured reserve (IR).

The New York Giants returned to the practice field on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for a Week 12 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Before heading out into the unseasonably warm temperatures, head coach Brian Daboll took the podium to speak with reporters.

The good news is that linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux has been designated to return from injured reserve (IR) and had his 21-day practice window open. But Daboll expects him to return long before that, even indicating that he could play this Sunday.

“We’ll open up Kayvon’s window, so he’ll start, optimistic that he’ll be ready to go,” Daboll said.

All other players were expected to practice on at least a limited basis.

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

Did not participate: None

Limited participant: LB Matthew Adams (knee), WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton (Achilles), TE Theo Johnson (back), NT Dexter Lawrence (knee), LB Darius Muasau (hamstring), S Tyler Nubin (back), LB Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist), OL Greg Van Roten (abdomen)

Full participant: WR Darius Slayton (concussion)

Giants’ Darius Slayton, Bryce Ford-Wheaton out vs. Panthers

New York Giants wide receivers Darius Slayton and Bryce Ford-Wheaton are out against the Carolina Panthers, and four others are questionable.

The New York Giants wrapped up their week of practice on Friday morning in Germany and their final injury report is a bit of a mixed bag.

Wide receiver Darius Slayton, who remains in concussion protocol, did not make the flight with his teammates and was officially ruled out on Thursday evening.

The good news is that offensive lineman Chris Hubbard, kicker Graham Gano, and punter Jamie Gillan all made the trip.

“We’ll go ahead and go through practice like we normally do and then we’ll decide what we’re going to do. But, I think for both the kickers and for Chris, that’s looking positive. So, we’ll see,” Daboll told reporters.

Meanwhile, wide receiver and special teams ace, Bryce Ford-Wheaton, also failed to make the trip and will be out on Sunday.

Daboll also expressed doubt about the availability ot safety Jason Pinnock.

“Pinnock is a concern for the game. I wouldn’t rule him out, but he’s probably the one,” he said.

Full injury reports for both the Giants and Panthers can be found below:

New York Giants

Out: WR Darius Slayton (concussion), WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton (Achilles)

Doubtful: None

Questionable: LB Matthew Adams (calf), K Graham Gano (hamstring), S Jason Pinnock (abdomen), LB Darius Muasau (hamstring)

Carolina Panthers

Out: N/A

Doubtful: N/A

Questionable: N/A

Giants injury report: Darius Slayton out vs. Panthers

New York Giants wide receivers Darius Slayton and Bryce Ford-Wheaton are unlikely to play in Week 10 against the Carolina Panthers.

Editor’s note: Darius Slayton did not travel with the team to Germany and is officially out in Week 10.

The New York Giants took the field on Thursday for their second of three practices ahead of a Week 10 game against the Carolina Panthers in Munich, Germany.

Beforehand, head coach Brian Daboll delivered the unfortunate news that wide receivers Darius Slayton and Bryce Ford-Wheaton are unlikely to travel and will subsequently miss Sunday’s game against Carolina.

On the flip side of that coin, both kicker Graham Gano and punter Jamie Gillan continue to progress and are likely to suit up in Week 10. Gillan is all but guaranteed to play and Daboll says Gano has a strong chance.

The coach also revealed that offensive lineman Greg Van Roten should be “OK” to play on Sunday.

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

Did not participate: WR Darius Slayton (concussion), WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton (Achilles), OL Chris Hubbard (illness)

Limited participant: K Graham Gano (hamstring), P Jamie Gillan (hamstring), TE Theo Johnson (knee/back), LB Ty Summers (ankle), NT Dexter Lawrence (NIR), OL Greg Van Roten (shoulder), LB Matthew Adams (calf), S Jason Pinnock (abdomen), LB Darius Muasau (hamstring)

Giants injury report: Graham Gano designated to return from IR

The New York Giants have designated kicker Graham Gano to return from IR, while WR Darius Slayton’s Week 10 availability looks grim.

The New York Giants returned to the practice field on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for a Week 10 game against the Carolina Panthers at Allianz
Arena in Munich, Germany.

Before heading out into the Spring-like weather, head coach Brian Daboll informed reporters that kicker Graham Gano had his practice window opened and suggested there’s a chance he would play on Sunday.

The news wasn’t nearly as positive for wide receiver Darius Slayton, who remains in concussion protocol and is behind where running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. was a week ago. Daboll said Slayton may not travel to Germany with the team.

“Not there yet. He could possibly not travel. We’ll see where he’s at,” Daboll told reporters. “That hasn’t been decided yet, but if he’s not progressing where he needs to progress, there’s a chance we could not travel him.”

Daboll also revealed that wide receiver and special teams ace, Bryce Ford-Wheaton, remains out with an Achilles injury.

Finally, punter Matt Haack, who had his contract terminated on Tuesday, has been signed to the practice squad. Cornerback Art Green has been signed from the reserve unit to the 53-man roster.

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

Did not participate: WR Darius Slayton (concussion), WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton (Achilles), OL Greg Van Roten (shoulder), NT Dexter Lawrence (NIR)

Limited participant: K Graham Gano (hamstring), P Jamie Gillan (hamstring), TE Theo Johnson (knee/back), LB Ty Summers (ankle)

Full participant: None
