Giants’ Perkins On Bubble After Losing Season To Injury

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — The moment of truth is fast approaching for New York Giants running back Paul Perkins.

After missing the 2018 season with a torn pectoral muscle, Perkins is days away from finding out if the surgery, the rehabilitation and the hard work will have been enough to earn him a roster spot again.

The 24-year-old is certainly going to get a lot of work Thursday night when the Giants (3-0) face the Patriots (3-0) in Foxborough, Massachusetts in their preseason finale. The final cuts to the 53-man roster come Saturday.
