The bye week did the New York Giants good as far as injuries are concerned.
The Giants had all hands on deck to start Week 12, including receiver Darius Slayton, who is in the final stages of the concussion protocol, safety Jason Pinnock (abdomen), and receiver Bryce Ford-Wheaton.
In addition, outside linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux, who has been on injured reserve after having surgery on his wrist, had his 21-day window opened Wednesday and is on track to return by Sunday, per head coach Brian Daboll.
Thibodeaux, who sounded confident of his chances of returning this week, is no longer wearing any sort of apparatus. However, it’s possible that he might wear some sort of protective device on game day to ensure he doesn’t have a setback.
Here are the full injury reports for both teams.
