Micah McFadden - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Out for Week 18 finale McFadden (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact McFadden will miss his second straight game to close out the season, so Darius Muasau and Ty Summers should again see the majority of the linebacker snaps against Philadelphia. McFadden's season comes to a close having recorded a career-best 107 tackles (60 solo), including eight TFLs and 3.0 sacks, one pass breakup, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 14 games, all starts. The 25-year-old linebacker has one year remaining on his rookie deal in 2025.

Misses Wednesday's practice McFadden (neck) didn't practice Wednesday, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.

Impact McFadden was sidelined for the Giants' Week 17 win over the Colts due to a neck injury sustained the week prior, and Wednesday's DNP likely suggests he's in jeopardy of missing additional time.

Impact McFadden didn't play in the second half of this past Sunday's loss to Atlanta due to the neck issue, and it appears the injury is still bothering him. The third-year linebacker's likelihood of suiting up Sunday versus Indianapolis should gain clarity as the practice week progresses. Ty Summers saw his first significant defensive workload of the campaign following McFadden's exit against the Falcons, and he'd likely be in line to start if McFadden misses Week 17.
