Knee soreness kept Malik Nabers off the field on Wednesday, but the Giants wide receiver was back at work on Thursday.

Nabers was a limited participant as the Giants continued preparing to face the Commanders in Week 5. Nabers was noncommittal about his status for the game when he spoke to reporters Wednesday, but the return to work is a good sign that he’ll be able to go.

Left tackle Andrew Thomas (groin) also returned on a limited basis. The Giants have managed Thomas’s practice workload all season without him missing any game action.

Running back Najee Harris (personal) was a full participant after missing the first practice of the week. Defensive lineman Chauncey Golston (neck) and safety Jason Pinnock (concussion) remained out of practice.

Tight end Isaiah Likely (knee, groin), tight end Chris Manhertz (shoulder), and running back Cam Skattebo (shoulder) were limited for the second straight day. Cornerback Deonte Banks (calf) and offensive lineman Bryan Hudson (ankle) were both full participants.
