Xavier McKinney, out since suffering a left hand injury while vacationing in Cabo during the bye week, got the pins removed from his surgically-repaired hand on Wednesday. Coach Brian Daboll said Thursday, though, that he is uncertain whether McKinney will be able to play again this season.
“I don’t want to I don’t want to use the patented I’m no doctor,” Daboll said. “But on this one I just know he got him out. I don’t know a whole lot more than that.”
Daboll said “I don’t know that answer. I hope so,” when asked directly if McKinney, a third-year safety and a key member of the Giants’ defense, could play again this season.
