Injury Report

As of Tuesday, several Giants have participated in limited practice this week, most notably cornerback Janoris Jenkins, who left the Detroit game injured in the first half. His status is still questionable for Thursday’s game. Will Beatty, Nate Berhe, Jonathan Casillas, Zak de’Ossie, Keenan Robinson, and Marshall Newhouse all participated in limited practice as well. Defensive end Owa Odighizuwa fully participated in practice, and will likely feature in the game.

As for the Eagles, only one player, running back Kenjon Barner, did not practice. Most of the big names on Philadelphia’s injury list practiced fully: wide receiver Jordan Matthews, running back Darren Sproles, and tight end Brent Celek.

The biggest injury storyline is, and will continue to remain, Janoris Jenkins, as the Giants hope their shutdown corner will be good to go.
