The New York Giants have announced that rookie linebacker Darrian Beavers has suffered a torn ACL.
Beavers was one of several Giants injured Sunday night against the Cincinnati Bengals in the second preseason game. He suffered the injury while attempting to make a tackle on Bengals’ running back Trayveon Williams early in the third quarter. He was caught with his left leg straight and foot planted as he met the RB, likely leading to the injury.
The Giants’ sixth-round draft pick had been having a very good summer, flashing in both training camp and in the first two preseason games.
