The idea of either cornerback Adoree’ Jackson (knee) or safety Xavier McKinney (hand) returning to the New York Giants lineup this week against the Philadelphia Eagles took a hit on Wednesday. Neither player practiced as the Giants began preparations for Sunday’s game.
McKinney is on the Reserve/Non-Football Injury list. Thus, his name won’t appear on the official injury report.
Among players on the 53-man roster, Jackson, defensive lineman Leonard Williams (neck), offensive lineman Joshua Ezeudu (neck) and offensive lineman Shane Lemieux (toe) did not practice.
Safety Julian Love, defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence and guard Mark Glowinski were given veteran rest days on Wednesday.
