The New York Giants have a massive NFC East clash with the Washington Commanders coming up. Head coach Brian Daboll gave some key information about who will (and will not) be suiting up for the tilt. Chief among those names were All-Pro left tackle Andrew Thomas (out) and starting quarterback Daniel Jones (questionable). https://twitter.com/DDuggan21/status/1715389843704791400 Injuries are nothing new for this Giants team. Several players are on the team’s IR right now. John Michael Schmitz Jr. and Matt Peart are joining Andrew Thomas as linemen missing this game. Right tackle Evan Neal (questionable) could join them, and so could cornerback Adoree’…

As if the Giants’ offensive line wasn’t in rough enough shape, Shane Lemieux was put on the IR Thursday morning because of a torn bicep. The New York Giants have gotten used to Lemieux being injured, as this is the third straight year he’s hit the IR. After playing 532 snaps as a rookie in 2020, he’s only totaled 159 since. For a New York offense that desperately needs average offensive line play, he’s not a player that they wanted to see go down again. https://twitter.com/Dan_Salomone/status/1715031056166834600 Who is Joining Shane Lemieux as an Injured Giants Offensive Player? Along the offensive…

A knee injury on a short week threatened Trevor Lawrence’s status for Thursday Night Football, but he’s officially in for the contest. The Jacksonville Jaguars would’ve turned to C.J. Beathard in his absence. This is obviously excellent news for Jacksonville as they seek another win tonight. https://twitter.com/CameronWolfe/status/1715134458016219444 What Does Trevor Lawrence Mean to the Jaguars Franchise? Lawrence is unquestionably Jacksonville’s franchise quarterback after the organization drafted him first overall in 2021. Trevor Lawrence has 1,439 passing yards, seven touchdowns, and three interceptions this season. After a rough rookie year under former head coach Urban Meyer, his passer rating is above…

When the Virginia Cavaliers take the field on Saturday, they’ll be trying to ride the high of their first win the last time out. Meanwhile, a North Carolina (UNC) Tar Heels squad eyeing an ACC Championship (at least) will try to kill any momentum that the Cavaliers have. Divisions may not exist in the ACC anymore, but this contest will continue a string of annual meetings dating back to 1919. Anything can happen when these schools cross paths. Will the Cavaliers spoil a UNC season that has been spectacular thus far? https://twitter.com/UNCFootball/status/1714422656869540128 Virginia Cavaliers vs. #10 North Carolina Tar Heels…

The Arizona Cardinals are having a busy Wednesday afternoon. Safety Budda Baker, who injured his hamstring before Arizona’s Week 2 game, returned to practice. He joined star quarterback Kyler Murray as an important player nearing a return to the Cardinals lineup. Hamstrings can be tricky to navigate, but Baker’s presence in the secondary will unquestionably make Arizona a better football team moving forward. https://twitter.com/PHNX_Cardinals/status/1714694780553490761 What Does Budda Baker Bring to the Team? Currently in his seventh season, Budda Baker has been an All-Pro twice and made five Pro Bowls. A defensive captain in Arizona, he averaged 115.2 tackles per season…

Justin Pugh, a New York Giants first-round pick back in the 2013 NFL Draft, returned to Big Blue as an emergency lineman in Week 6. He started at left guard before another injury forced him to move to left tackle. On Wednesday afternoon, the Giants announced that they’ve officially signed him to the active roster. In the move, New York waived tight end Lawrence Cager. https://twitter.com/Giants/status/1714678466086351307 Where Justin Pugh Fits Into Giants’ Plans New York’s offensive line has been bad all season. While Justin Pugh wasn’t incredible, allowing two sacks and three pressures, he was better than most of their…

Brock Bowers, an All-American for the two-time defending champion #1 Georgie Bulldogs, suffered an ankle injury in the first half of Saturday’s game. Now, he’s reportedly receiving TightRope surgery that will keep him out of action for four to six weeks. Oscar Delp, Lawson Luckie, and Pearce Spurlin III are the tight ends tasked with filling the void. https://twitter.com/ESPNStatsInfo/status/1713955450075627526 What’s Next for Georgia Without Brock Bowers Bowers should fully recover, but it won’t happen overnight. So, Georgia’s quest for a third straight national title will continue without their leading receiver. They have a bye this weekend, before facing the rival Florida…

This year’s New York Giants have been a mess along the offensive line all season. Injuries and underperformance have earned this group a few labels that aren’t pretty. Well, Andrew Thomas, John Michael Schmitz Jr., and Matt Peart have already been ruled out for Sunday Night Football, so they won’t help flip the narrative this week. Evan Neal and Shane Lemieux are questionable for the contest. https://twitter.com/DDuggan21/status/1712894478283870319 Missing three linemen is always going to be a mess, especially when two of them are Week 1 starters. Potentially missing five, when another one of those players is also a starter, is…

When the New York Giants and Buffalo Bills met in Super Bowl XXV, the AFC’s upstate franchise entered as firm favorites. Utter the phrase “wide right” near any older Buffalo fans to figure out how that game went. The stakes aren’t nearly as high this weekend, but there’s precedent for the unexpected happening in the NFL. So, two teams looking to respond to a Week 5 loss will cross paths on Sunday night. Will the Giants put on for the city, or is Buffalo’s raucous home crowd too much to overcome? https://twitter.com/SNFonNBC/status/1712845899833987284 Giants vs. Bills Odds and Match Details Team…

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has been trying his best to suit up in Buffalo this week. However, the neck injury proved too much, as Jones was officially ruled OUT for Sunday night’s contest. Head coach Brian Daboll confirmed the news on Friday. It will be his first injury absence since the 2021 regular season. https://twitter.com/NFL/status/1712859372722823419 Who is Stepping in for Daniel Jones? Tyrod Taylor will step in for Jones on Sunday Night Football. Taylor gets a crack at one of his many former teams when he takes on the Buffalo Bills. He has been in the league since…
