Giants get some good injury news after midweek scares

The New York Giants received encouraging injury updates ahead of Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. Key starters Abdul Carter, Jermaine Eluemunor, and Andrew Thomas all took part in individual drills during Friday's practice. Listed as limited participants, all three players are designated as questionable. Head coach John Harbaugh noted that Carter looked fine during work, providing an important potential boost with fellow edge rusher Brian Burns already sidelined for the rest of the season.

While Carter, Thomas, and Eluemunor could play, the Giants officially ruled out Colton Hood, Theo Johnson, and Tyler Nubin. Offensive tackle Marcus Mbow stands ready as the primary swing option if Thomas or Eluemunor are inactive. Additionally, Harbaugh addressed ball-security concerns regarding running back Cam Skattebo, who has committed four fumbles this season, noting there is a threshold where depth chart adjustments become necessary.
