Injury update: Giants’ Brian Burns expected to play vs. Browns

New York Giants star edge defender Brian Burns is expected to play Sunday afternoon against the Cleveland Browns. Brown was on Friday’s injury report with a groin injury, and was given a ‘questionable’ designation.

Burns’ apparently reported groin tightness on Friday, so the Giants limited him in that day’s practice.

Acquired by the Giants in a splashy offseason trade, Burns made the Pro Bowl twice in his first five seasons. He has yet to make an impact on defense for the Giants, with just seven tackles and no quarterback hits.
