Giants TE Evan Engram's out again, getting close to return

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- This week Evan Engram made progress. The New York Giants tight end won’t play Sunday against the Carolina Panthers, but he did some running and light cutting on a side field while his teammates practiced.

It was the first time Engram was able to do these activities since spraining his right MCL two weeks ago against the Houston Texans. It gives hope his return isn't far off.

Engram will miss his second straight game Sunday. The Giants play again Thursday night against the Philadelphia Eagles, and that game also appears unlikely for Engram, given the time constraints.
