With two interior offensive linemen out and another listed as questionable, the Giants promoted C Shane McDermott from their practice squad on Saturday. McDermott was with the Giants in training camp and on the practice squad until mid-September. He was added to the practice squad just this week in the face of the injuries.
The Giants will face the Bears on Sunday without starting guard Justin Pugh (knee) or his initial replacement, Brett Jones (calf). Marshall Newhouse is expected to get the start at left guard in their place. His backup, Adam Gettis (calf) is listed as questionable.
