The New York Giants are in good position heading into Week 10. New York is 5-2-1 and sitting atop the NFC East division standings despite plenty of early adversity. The Giants can gain even more ground in the division by defeating the Commanders on Thursday Night Football. Fortunately, the final injury report is full of good news for Giants fans.
New York is looking quite healthy ahead of their Thursday night showdown with Washington.
The Giants should have both J.J. McCarthy and Cam Skattebo available in Week 10 despite their recent injuries. McCarthy was dealing with a hip injury and was a limited participant at Monday's practice. Fortunately, he was able to fully practice on Tuesday and Wednesday. As a result, McCarthy does not have a game status and is fully cleared to play.
As for Skattebo, the young running back was dealing with a hamstring issue. But just like McCarthy, he was limited on Monday and return for the following two practices. He does not have a game status.
Several other Giants players are playing through minor injuries. Malik Nabers (knee), Andrew Thomas (groin), and Theo Johnson (neck) are just a few of the players who are on the injury report with minor issues. All three of those players were full participants at every practice this week and none of them have a game status.
In fact, the only Giants players with an injury designation is linebacker Malik Harrison. He is questionable for Thursday Night Football due to a groin injury. There is even a chance he can play after practicing in a limited capacity throughout the week.
It will be exciting to see if New York can run away with the NFC East with a big win over Washington.
Giants vs. Commanders kicks off at 8:15 p.m. ET from MetLife Stadium.
