NEW YORK GIANTS NEWS

Daniel Jones - Positive news regarding injury Jones (neck) could return this season and may even be available entering Week 9 against the Raiders, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.

Impact This seems to be a direct contradiction to Friday's report, which highlighted head coach Brian Daboll hardly squashing the premise that Jones could miss the entire season with a severe neck injury. It would seem unlikely the fifth-year quarterback would suddenly be healthy enough to play Week 9 after still not being cleared for contact, but it's still encouraging that the Giants seem to anticipate he'll play before the end of the year.

Gary Brightwell - Won't play Week 8 Brightwell (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against against the Jets, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.

Impact Brightwell didn't practice at all during Week 8 prep, and he's thus been ruled out for Sunday's matchup. The third-year running back has been used mostly on special teams this season, and he hasn't logged an offensive snap since Week 4. However, with rookie RB Eric Gray moved to IR on Tuesday, the Giants recently signed both Jashaun Corbin and Deon Jackson to serve as depth behind Saquon Barkley and Matt Breida out of the backfield.

Adoree' Jackson - Questionable for Sunday vs. Jets Jackson (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Jets, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Jackson is in jeopardy of missing his second straight game as he tends to a neck injury he sustained in Week 6 at Buffalo. If he sits out, rookie first-rounder Deonte Banks would project as the Giants' top cover corner for Week 8.

Gary Brightwell - Clear to play vs. Jets Brightwell (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus the Jets, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Brightwell is in line to return from a three-game absence in Week 8. With Saquon Barkley and Matt Breida both also healthy headed into Sunday's game, Brightwell figures to settle into a reserve role.

Wan'Dale Robinson - No injury designation Robinson (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Giants continue to limit Robinson's practice workloads even though he hasn't missed a game or suffered a setback since his Week 3 debut. He's bounced back from the torn ACL that cut short his 2022 campaign to reclaim his role as the primary slot receiver, averaging 4.6 catches for 32.6 yards on 5.4 targets per game (85.2 percent catch rate, 7.1 yards per catch). Robinson still isn't getting many snaps in two-receiver formations or many targets downfield, limiting his fantasy relevance to deeper PPR formats for the time being.

Saquon Barkley - Cleared for Week 8 Barkley (elbow) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The lack of an injury designation isn't particularly surprising after Barkley was able to return to last Sunday's win over the Commanders after hyperextending his elbow during the contest. He finished the game with an 83 percent snap share and 24 touches, after handling 79 percent of snaps and 28 touches the week before in a loss to Buffalo in his first game back from an ankle injury. Barkley should be busy again this Sunday and will once again have quarterback Tyrod Taylor alongside him in the backfield rather than Daniel Jones (neck).

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Darren Waller - Deemed questionable, should play Waller (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Impact Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com relays that the Giants have confidence Waller will be available this weekend, even though the tight end was a limited participant in practices Wednesday through Friday. Waller is coming off a season-best 8-97-1 receiving line in last week's win over the Commanders and is on track to again serve as the top target for quarterback Tyrod Taylor, who will make a third consecutive start in place of Daniel Jones (neck). Jones still doesn't have medical clearance for contact and appears in serious danger of missing more games beyond Week 8.

Daniel Jones - No lock to play again in 2023 Giants head coach Brian Daboll was non-committal Friday when asked if Jones (neck) will definitively play again this season, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Daboll previously said Jones would be the team's starting quarterback once he gained medical clearance, and while that's presumably still the case, it's not clear when that will actually happen. Jones has been taking scout-team reps since last week, with his availability for games based on gaining clearance for contact from the medical staff rather than his ability to participate in practice. Jones is tending to his second significant neck injury in three years, and there's reportedly a risk of suffering a severe spinal injury if he takes contact before the issue fully subsides. The Giants haven't ruled Jones out beyond Sunday's game against the Jets, but it certainly sounds like he's in danger of missing additional time. Tyrod Taylor will make a third consecutive start this Sunday.

Tyrod Taylor - Getting another start Taylor will start Sunday's game against the Jets after Daniel Jones (neck) was ruled out, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Impact Taylor will make his third straight start, after nearly upsetting the Bills in Week 6 and then leading the Giants to a 14-7 win over the Commanders in Week 7. The Giants are still expected to return Jones to the starting role once he's medically cleared, though head coach Brian Daboll was non-committal Friday when asked if Jones will be available to play again this season, according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. With that in mind, Taylor could have more starts in his future, even if Daboll wasn't ready to confirm anything beyond this Sunday.

Daniel Jones - Out for third straight game Jones (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Tyrod Taylor will make his third consecutive start, as Jones remains limited in practice and still doesn't have clearance for contact. The quarterback's next chance to play will come Week 9 at Las Vegas on Nov. 5. Head coach Brian Daboll has already stated that Jones will reclaim the starting role once he's medically cleared to play.

Graham Gano - Practices Thursday Gano (knee) was a full participant in practice Thursday after participating on a limited basis Wednesday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Impact It's a good sign that the kicker is on track to play for the eighth time in as many games this season Sunday against the Jets. Gano has made all seven extra-point attempts and 10 of 14 field goals in 2023.

OCTOBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Wan'Dale Robinson - Limited Thursday Robinson (knee) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Since making his season debut Week 3, Robinson has endured some practice limitations from time to time, likely due to the torn ACL in his right knee that he suffered Week 11 of last year. However, he's been able to play in five straight games en route to a cumulative 23-163-0 line on 27 targets. Friday's injury report will unveil whether or not Robinson enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest against the Jets.

OCTOBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Darren Waller - Remains limited Thursday Waller (hamstring) logged a limited practice Thursday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Impact With another capped session under his belt this week, Waller has just one more chance to prove the health of his hamstring before the Giants potentially tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game versus the Jets. If Waller is able to suit up, he likely will be on the receiving end of passes from Tyrod Taylor due to Daniel Jones (neck) not yet being cleared for contact. In two contests working with Taylor, Waller has hauled in 12 of 15 targets for 141 yards and one touchdown over those two games.

OCTOBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Saquon Barkley - Another limited showing Barkley (elbow) was a limited at practice Thursday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Barkley maintained his activity level for a second consecutive session to kick off Week 8 prep as he manages the hyperextended left elbow that he suffered this past Sunday against the Commanders. Considering he logged 83 percent of the snaps and racked up 24 touches while playing through the injury, he doesn't appear to be in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Jets, but there's a chance that he enters the weekend with a designation.

Daniel Jones - Trending toward another missed game Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that the status quo remains in place for Jones (neck), who still hasn't been cleared for contact and will be a limited participant in Thursday's...

Impact Jones will go down as a limited participant for the fifth practice in a row, and unless he takes a dramatic step forward in terms of his practice activity Friday, he'll most likely miss a third consecutive game this Sunday against the Jets. The Giants listed Jones as questionable ahead of their Week 7 game versus Washington, but he was ultimately inactive while practice-squad call-up Tommy DeVito served as the backup behind fill-in starter Tyrod Taylor. With Taylor taking all the first-team reps to begin Week 8 prep Wednesday, he appears to be headed for a third straight start while Jones gets more time to heal up from his neck injury.

Giants vs. Jets Injury Report – Week 8, 2023

OCTOBER 25, 2023 • DATA SKRIVE

Gary Brightwell - Non-participant at practice Brightwell (hamstring) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Brightwell was forced out of Sunday's game versus Washington with a hamstring injury, which is now also keeping him out of practice to start the week. Unless he can come back to practice Thursday or Friday, he'll probably have to sit out Week 8 versus the Jets.
