New York Giants rookie running back Tyrone Tracy, Jr. has returned to practice on a limited basis after dealing with an ankle injury that sidelined him for two days. He has been cleared to play in the upcoming game against the Indianapolis Colts, as he does not carry an injury designation. In contrast, fellow rookie receiver Malik Nabers, who has been struggling with a toe injury, participated in practice but is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game. Nabers is aiming for his first 1,000-yard season and has indicated that his availability will be determined closer to game time.

Unfortunately, the Giants will be without four other starters who have missed practice this week and have been ruled out for the game. These players include center John Michael Schmitz (ankle), cornerback Greg Stroman (shoulder/shin), defensive back Raheem Layne (knee), and inside linebacker Micah McFadden (neck). Coach Brian Daboll confirmed that guard Greg Van Roten, who appeared on the injury report due to a knee issue, will start at center. Additionally, inside linebacker Dyontae Johnson is expected to see significant playing time, along with Ty Summers. The team is also considering activating guard Austin Schlottmann, who is currently in a 21-day practice window after returning from injured reserve.

Drew Lock is set to start as quarterback for the New York Giants against the Indianapolis Colts, aiming to break a franchise-record 10-game losing streak. After a rough outing against the Atlanta Falcons, where Lock struggled with turnovers, he has received medical clearance for his shoulder injury.

Coach Brian Daboll emphasized the importance of giving Lock consistent practice reps. The Giants, currently the lowest-scoring team in the NFL, have seen a significant shift in their quarterback lineup following the release of Daniel Jones.

The New York Giants face mounting scrutiny over their quarterback decisions as Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll's choices continue to backfire. After releasing Daniel Jones and starting Tommy DeVito, the team suffered a humiliating loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Drew Lock, who was benched, is now set to start despite injuries, highlighting the team's ongoing struggles at the position.

With the Giants on the brink of a franchise-record tenth consecutive loss, the pressure is on Schoen and Daboll to make the right call moving forward. Meanwhile, injuries are plaguing the roster, with key players like Bobby Okereke and Aaron Stinnie sidelined.

Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll's decision to pass on first-round quarterbacks in the draft is now under scrutiny as Michael Penix Jr. prepares for his first NFL start with the Atlanta Falcons against the struggling New York Giants. The Giants, sitting at 2-12, face the possibility of a 10th consecutive loss, further complicating Schoen and Daboll's future.

Despite their choice of wide receiver Malik Nabers at No. 6 overall, the Giants' offense has struggled, averaging just 14.9 points per game. Meanwhile, the Falcons, despite their own issues, have opened as favorites for the matchup.
