Listed as limited Peppers (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Peppers wasn't able to suit up versus the Cowboys in Week 5, but it appears that he's making progress in his recovery. Given the amount of injuries New York is dealing with on the offensive side of the ball, getting a defensive leader like Peppers back in action would be a much-needed boon heading into Sunday's game against the Rams.

Ruled out for Week 5 Peppers (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Giants have elected to shut down the 26-year-old, despite reports of him wanting to play in Week 5. Kadarius Toney could see some time at punt returner against the Cowboys with Peppers sidelined, and Julian Love and Nate Ebner will likely get some extended snaps in the secondary.

Doesn't practice Wednesday Peppers (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Peppers picked up a hamstring injury during Sunday's win over the Saints, but he said after the game that he intended to play Week 5. If the 26-year-old safety doesn't practice in at least some capacity Thursday, his status for the divisional matchup Sunday will be in question.

Wants to play Week 5 Peppers (hamstring) said after Sunday's 27-21 win over the Saints that he intends to suit up Week 5, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Impact Peppers said he'll be available for Oct. 10's divisional matchup against the Cowboys, but his statement should be taken with a grain of salt until the Giants release more details about his hamstring injury. Julian Love would likely stand to handle an increased defensive workload if Peppers ended up missing time.

Puts up eight tackles Peppers recorded eight tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Falcons.

Impact Peppers is still handling far fewer snaps than both Logan Ryan and Xavier McKinney, but he managed to put together respectable numbers anyway. It'll be tough to rely on Peppers on a weekly basis until his snap count rises. He maintains plenty of upside once he gets his shot. After all, Peppers recorded 91 tackles, 11 pass breakups and 2.5 sacks in 2020.

Loses snaps Peppers, one of last year's better IDP defensive backs, lost snaps to second-year man Xavier McKinney Sunday against the Broncos.

Impact McKinney (63 snaps) was an early second-round pick last year, so it's likely he'll continue to cut into Peppers' (30 snaps) playing time. Unless that changes, Peppers has no chance to repeat his tackle numbers from last year.
