New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll confirmed that quarterback Drew Lock is expected to play against the Indianapolis Colts despite a challenging performance last week. Lock's recent game included two interceptions returned for touchdowns, but Daboll emphasizes the importance of continuity for the offense.

Injury concerns loom for the Giants, with linebacker Micah McFadden and several others not participating in practice due to various injuries. Defensive back Raheem Layne, recently signed, will miss the rest of the season due to a torn meniscus.

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.

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers sustained a hip flexor injury during practice and is questionable for the upcoming game against the New Orleans Saints. Coach Brian Daboll expressed hope for Nabers' availability, but acknowledged the uncertainty.

Nabers has been a key player for the Giants, leading the team in receptions and targets. However, he has struggled to find the end zone since returning from a concussion. The Giants face additional injury challenges, with several key players ruled out for the game.

The New York Giants face a significant challenge as they adjust to the loss of Pro Bowl tackle Dexter Lawrence, who dislocated his left elbow during the Thanksgiving game against the Dallas Cowboys and has been placed on injured reserve.

Lawrence, a key player with nine sacks this season, will be missed both on and off the field, as he serves as a captain and leader for the team. The Giants, currently struggling with a 2-10 record, will need to step up their game against the New Orleans Saints without him.

The New York Giants have made significant roster changes by placing defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence II and tight end Theo Johnson on injured reserve due to season-ending injuries. Lawrence, who was having an All-Pro season with nine sacks, suffered a dislocated elbow, while Johnson ended his rookie year with 29 receptions and one touchdown but is sidelined with a foot injury.

To fill the void, the Giants have signed defensive tackle Cory Durden from the Los Angeles Rams’ practice squad. Durden, who had a notable college career at Florida State and North Carolina State, brings depth to the defensive line after spending time on the Rams' practice squad.
