Giants Face Injury Questions Ahead of Titans Game
The short version
- Jaxson Dart left Monday's loss to the Rams with a knee injury on the Giants' 11th play.
- Brian Burns sustained an ankle sprain late in the game.
- Andrew Thomas (groin), Malik Nabers (shoulder), and Deonte Banks (calf) also have uncertain status.
- The Giants face the Titans, Cardinals, Commanders, and Saints over the next four weeks.
Quarterback Jaxson Dart and edge defender Brian Burns were hurt in Monday night's loss to the Rams, and their status for Sunday is unknown.
The New York Giants dropped their Monday Night Football contest against the Los Angeles Rams and picked up several injuries along the way. Quarterback Jaxson Dart left with a knee injury on the team's 11th offensive play, and edge defender Brian Burns suffered an ankle sprain late in the game.
The status of several other key players is also uncertain. Left tackle Andrew Thomas is dealing with a groin issue, wide receiver Malik Nabers has a shoulder problem, and cornerback Deonte Banks is nursing a calf injury. None of the injuries are believed to be long-term, but the report indicated that multiple starters could miss time or be limited in the coming weeks.
New York has a short week to sort things out, with the Tennessee Titans up next following the trip back from California. The upcoming stretch also includes games against the Arizona Cardinals, Washington Commanders, and New Orleans Saints.
Those four opponents hold a combined 2-6 record through two weeks and have injury problems of their own. Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels dislocated an elbow, New Orleans left tackle Kelvin Banks fractured an ankle, and Arizona could lose cornerback Will Johnson for the season to a neck injury.
