Starts week limited Lock (hip) was a limited participant during practice Monday, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.
Impact Lock is still tending to the injury he suffered in the team's first preseason game Aug. 8 against the Lions. Carroll reported last Wednesday that head coach Brian Daboll thought the Missouri product would likely be ready Week 1, so his current status may not be of much concern. Either way, Lock will be on the sidelines Sunday when the Giants host the Vikings, either as the team's No. 2 quarterback behind Daniel Jones or as an inactive. If he is ultimately unable to play, the team will turn to Tommy DeVito as the backup.

Expected to be ready for Week 1 Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Sunday that Lock (hip) will likely be good to go for the start of the regular season, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.
Impact Lock hurt his hip in New York's preseason opener versus Detroit and didn't play in either of the team's remaining two exhibition contests. Daboll indicated Sunday that the quarterback is "moving in the right direction," which is supported by the fact that Lock recently returned to team drills and even even suited up for the Giants' preseason finale against the Jets on Saturday, though he didn't take the field. It's worth noting, though, that New York included three quarterbacks -- Lock, starter Daniel Jones and second-year pro Tommy DeVito -- on its initial 53-man roster, with DeVito possibly making the cut as insurance for Lock.

No action in preseason finale Lock (hip) did not appear in Saturday's 10-6 preseason loss to the Jets.
Impact Lock injured his hip in the Giants' first preseason contest and has not appeared in game action since. However, he has returned to team drills and was spotted in pads before Saturday's game. Considering the health concerns surrounding starter Daniel Jones, the Giants had little to gain by putting Lock in potential jeopardy ahead of the regular season. Lock will enter the season as the backup.

In uniform Saturday Lock (hip) is suited up ahead of Saturday's preseason game against the Jets, Bob Brookover of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Impact Lock was removed from the Giants' exhibition opener Aug. 8 and eventually was diagnosed with a bone contusion in his left hip and a strained oblique. The pair of health concerns sidelined him at practice until this past Tuesday, and he now appears as if he'll see his second dose of preseason action Saturday. Assuming he does, Lock will split QB duties with fellow reserve Tommy DeVito with Daniel Jones expected to sit out.

Back on the field Lock (hip) is practicing Tuesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Impact Lock suffered a bone contusion to his hip during the team's first preseason game against the Lions on Aug. 8 and has been out of action since. However, the veteran should be ready Week 1 against the Vikings, where he's expected to be the team's No. 2 quarterback, behind starter Daniel Jones.

Impact Lock said he fully expects to be ready for Week 1, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News. The backup QB suffered a bone contusion and strained oblique during New York's preseason opener against the Lions, but it doesn't appear he'll be sidelined too long. Until Lock returns to practice, though, No. 3 quarterback Tommy DeVito figures to benefit from increased reps.

Will miss multiple practices Lock (hip) will likely sit out of at least three practices, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.
Impact The backup quarterback suffered a bone contusion and strained oblique during the Giants' preseason game Thursday against the Lions. Fortunately for Lock, the injury will not require surgery and New York is not adding another quarterback at this time, per Dunleavy. Lock's absence, though, should give third-stringer Tommy DeVito more reps in New York's next preseason contest Aug. 17 against the Texans.

Impact Coach Brian Daboll said the Giants could add another quarterback with Lock injured. Though Daboll declined to offer a true estimate of Lock's recovery timetable, per Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports, he did say "it could be longer than a couple days." Tommy DeVito figures to step up and handle the bulk of second-team reps at practice as long as Lock is unable to go. It's possible, depending on the extent of Lock's absence and whether DeVito is able to impress with more opportunities on deck, that a competition for the No. 2 spot behind starter Daniel Jones could materialize.

Impact Lock was in clear pain after taking a hit late in the first quarter. With Daniel Jones not playing Thursday, Tommy DeVito ended up taking over for Lock, and the second-year pro may be destined for second-team reps in the short term until Lock is healthy.
